@Andres: I've been getting this warning every time I quote a post. It started after I made a post in the "Best Assault Rifle" thread after I posted some numeric info...Anyway to improve this system? Or should we just start spelling out anything numeral related?

Those warnings are automatic but innocuous, so there is no need to worry about them. I know they can be annoying, especially when you don't deserve them, but it has completely eliminated the issue with users posting their phone numbers, and since I was spending so much time chasing after them and editing their posts and giving out infractions, this is a necessary evil that has allowed me to spend more time working on the site. To avoid it, try to spell out sequences of numbers that are 6 consecutive digits or longer.

Were were down for about 15 minutes because Apache on the Server crashed and had to be restarted. Did you click the blue button to reload the live site?

There are different infractions, so it depends. That said, temporary bans only grow, and they start with a 24-hour ban. However, only the infractions you made in the last 6 months count.
