Not at the moment, any warn rating over 20% restricts you from using the trading forum.

For future reference:

Forum rules said:
Warnings, Suspensions & Bans

GBAtemp v2 introduced IPB 2.0; including a member Warning system. Every time a member violates a rule or disrupts the forum, a warning will be applied by a member of staff. Depending on the severity of the violation of rules, the member will be dealt with accordingly:

Under normal circumstances the member will be issued a single warning and an explanation.
Under heavier circumstances the member will be issued one or more warnings and may be suspended.
Under extreme circumstances, being an extreme violation of rules or disruption, the member will be banned from GBAtemp.

All actions are decided by staff only and once made are not open to public debate.

Warning System Rundown:

Warnings can be reviewed by clicking on the percentage of warnings under the members username within a topic or in their profile. Other members outside of the forum staff CANNOT see your warn level.

When a member is warned by staff, staff have the option of disabling their ability to post for a few hours/days, suspending the member for a few hours/days or enforcing a staff preview of all their new posts for a few hours/day.

When a member has been warned by staff, the member will also receive a personal message from that staff member explaining why they were warned. Members may reply to this PM to explain their actions, ask a question or if they think they were warned in error; they may say so.

Warnings do not automatically decrease. Staff have the ability to decrease warning levels if a member makes a positive impression that they are trying to improve themselves. Otherwise, the warning will be in place for 6 months to a year.

Once the number of active warnings reaches 10 (100%), the member is banned from the GBAtemp Forums.

After being suspended or banned anyone caught sneaking back onto the forum under an alias or "suspension/ban evading" will be banned.

From what I know, it really shouldn't restrict you from anything

But if you get anything above that you can't go in the trading forums

Yeah, you can post in the trading forums, but if a mod sees it they'll most likely remove the post.

EDIT: Wait a sec, how did you accumulate 20% warn?

Trading forum rulesUsers that have a warning level strictly above 10% will not have access to the trading forums.

Also, 20+% warn doesn't automatically result in suspension, it's just that a higher warn level gives a higher chance on suspension.

And I believe Dave doesn't allow members with 30+% to have a Know Your Temps session.

Which is something that you REALLY wouldn't want to happen.
