Infraction Points

[jkt008]

How many "Infraction Points" can you have before having your account seized? I'm just wondering as I have had an infraction before for bumping. I have never bumped since, but I'm curious to know how far I am from the edge.
Thanks in advance.

AFAIK, 30 points= Permaban.

Ah, ok. Thank you.

Accruing 30 infraction points does result in a ban, although different infractions carry different penalties. Serious infractions (such a commercial spamming) receive an instant ban, for example. On the other hand, some infractions are temporary and hence a temporary infraction that puts you over the 30 point limit will result in a temporary ban for the duration of the infraction.

Thanks to you as well.

I thought it was 20, I was really watching it as I'm not in the best state right now.

I can't imagine why you would think it's 20, as the 30 figure been mentioned many times. In any case, now you know.

I'd say its more 3 strikes and you're out sort of thing. Its not 20. Though I'm in good shape at the moment.

Is it possible to check your total points?

If you view your profile and have a tab for Infractions, you can check them. If you don't have any, the tab won't show.

This (and other things) are all covered in the GTPlanet FAQ, however

Erm, no.

Each infraction can carry a different amount of points - 5 for relatively minor things, 10 for typical infractions, and up to 30 for serious things. Accumulate a total of 30 points and you get banned. The number of infractions you have is irrelevant, it's the number of infraction points that matters.
