Infractions Info

Infractions log your history of offenses on DreamViews and can translate into a temporary/permanent ban if and when enough points accrue. Infractions may result in restricted access until they expire. Serious infractions will never expire. You are expected to understand and follow the rules currently in place. Failure to abide by them will result in an infraction and/or ban.
