Giving out warnings for something you think might occur is like a police officer pulling someone over because he thinks they might speed. Everything that was said in this thread was well within the scope of the discussion saying that a player does something in game is not flamebaiting. Personally I dont think fansites should be all flowers and no reality.
Oh, then maybe I need to reword what I wrote. Because although, I do agree with your comparison with the police officer, I was not in any way agreeing with the other comments (ALL that were made on the subject of the warnings) that have been made. I was saying that both Yosei and Blaaaahs were justified and well within their limits when they asked people to remember the rules and keep it down.
If you want to use a comparison, we could use speed limit signs. They warn us what the limit is. They are posted multiple times over the same road. If you go even one mile over that limit, the officer has EVERY right to pull you over. Now, some (other sites) may give you a ticket for that one mile over the limit and they are within their laws (rules of the forums). But, others (Fiestafan), will issue you a verbal or written warning and let you continue on your merry way.

Respect our rules and warnings and we will respect you. You would not "call out" a police officer for pulling you over, because your chances of getting out of the ticket will drop drastically.
