Kexing Su receives a formal warning regarding his incessant abuse of the Cricket Web Colts, under the new Code Of Conduct.

Not really. Most of his total posts on CW have been calling us noobs...mind you, I don't really find that offensive. Mainly because it makes him look like a fool.

Wasn't aware simply "being annoying" was an offence. Is this going to be marked as an official offence or is this an unofficial warning (as it seems according to the code of conduct the first offence leads to a two match ban).

Hence he wasn't suspended for the offense. :p The warning may have seemed all official and whatnot, but if you note the Code, there is no reference relating it to punishment, so it's effectively just a warning... like UN ultimatums.

The point is that there have been several complaints relating to such comments, and really they're a real annoyance to a lot of us. If you're going to be tagging a team or player with banter, at least make it clever. I never thought I'd hate the word n00b so much.

Fairy 'nuff then. Although I note nobody has ever mentioned this annoyance to me. In fact, I've had a lot of complaints about the 'Yellows' term but not once has a Colt complained about being called a n00b.

Why is it according to the Code of Conduct then if the code of conduct doesn't say anything about it/its punishment. Further, why did you have to wait for the code of conduct to be released before you warned him? Seems like you're just picking on the guy tbh.

So you're threatening the guy for not being clever?
