Can someone please tell me what the last line of this means?

It means you have been a good boy so we haven't had to warn you. happy.gif

It's a moderation thing. If you are bad we can increase your warn level and you have to live with the public shame. It's one of the more silly features IMO, but most forums seem to have it now. I know for sure vBull has it.

Thanks pandy. I've just worked out, possibly(?), that the reason I can't see anyone else's is that it only shows in the member's own viewing of their posts? And if that is the case - what "public shame"?
pandy
Oh. I thought everyone saw them. It has been that way at other forums where I've shamed myself. That's good then. Makes it less silly. smile.gif

It's their take on the AIM warn system. Basically, an admin or a moderator can set a limit to one's ill behaviour on a forum, and when it reaches that limit, it will auto-ban them or some other pre-defined action.

Version 1.3 of this board had it as well when I ran it on a site I maintained, but it looks like they've expanded and enhanced it.

Just for clarification, only the individual in question and administrators and above can see warning levels.
