Lack of warning
A 3RR ban cannot be imposed against an editor who has not been warned that
he or she is in danger of violating the 3RR. A ban can only be imposed when
an editor violates the 3RR after receiving a warning even if he or she has
already tecnically violated the 3RR prior to receiving a warning.
Strongly oppose. Admins should use discretion in not blocking unwarned
users, but they shouldn't be prevented from doing so. 3RR is already
subject to gaming, and it only works because it's so strict. Giving
more escape clauses is a bad idea.
