It's because you're not staff that you don't have access to it

What do you mean?
I don't know if you got yours or know people getting warnings reduced, but as far as I remember, Costello himself made clear that a Patron pledge won't give any advantages over rules, warnings and bans.

It doesn't - the rules apply to everyone. Creating a system where paying users are considered better than non-paying users and therefore get away with breaking rules would just make for a horrible situation.

how much time does it take to get your warning level reduced?

It depends on the staff member who gave it to you, they generally choose when to remove the warnings. They used to say it'd take 6 months for a warning to be removed, but that now depends on if the user was displaying good behavior after the warning was given. I imagine if you have multiple warnings for the same offense, you probably won't see it lowered for a while.

6 month huh... so I've got a couple of warning that should be removed
I remember, the only time i'Ve got a warning reduction was one point removed after a year by a former staff who never warned me :S

Like I said, it now depends. If you're a shit user, your warnings won't be removed until you stop being a shit user.

It can vary by anything from 6 months to a year or whenever a staff member actually notices. And getting new warnings generally resets that clock.

I wouldn't say I've been a shit user but it's been 2 years since i got warned for... that one thing...

Animated gif avatars?

Edit, actually that might help entice people to become patreons

 

[Depravo]

Actually custom emotes would be a thing we could provide

I demand this but with a martini. :dep:

Got an alert on this thread. Has there been any update on any of the requests here? Custom emotes are a kinda cute idea.
