I think as to the matter of infraction points, there is one point for naughty, and two points for very naughty. Some posts are moderated via deletion or partial deletion where no points are levied of course. Some poster shortly upon my return, decided that was a very bad thing, and lashed out at me, and did earn 2 infraction points. I was quite disoriented by the whole affair. I try to avoid deliberately annoying posters, but obviously in that instance I was a spectacular fail in that regard.
Hang on, Torie. I've been badmouthing you ever since you returned and haven't seen any credit for my efforts!
