I explained it in
this post, although I guess Bulldog read it since he knows the magic number.
10 points equals a ban. If those points are set to never expire, it's basically a permban. The good thing about using infractions/warnings is that they all show up on the users infractions tab (only visible to mods). If infractions were always used to give out warnings and bans, checking up on a person's entire moderation history would be easy.
For this reason, I'm very much for the infractions being used - even if we don't use them exactly like the system is meant to work.
