You should really speak to an admin about this,maybe they'll explain better.
There's nothing to explain, whoever chose that terminology didn't understand it.

The dictionary definition is not up to date. It will catch up eventually.

Doesn't everyone find mistakes funny? Perhaps it's just a geek thing.

Though this topic wasn't to enlighten anyone, just to point out what appears to be a mistake.

Nope, just as I didn't say you couldn't not punctuate.

Before someone points out my mistake, the double negative, it was deliberate.

Catch up with how the word is being used.

As far as I'm aware infraction is only used to mean penalty in some US states and it usually refers to parking offenses.

No, I don't think it was to enlighten anyone either, I think i'm good with sarcasm.

The admins obviously or they wouldn't have forums for feedback.

Twilight 02-05-2010 09:36 PM
I don't get why you care about the meaning of it so much.

No "infraction" also means "penalty" on this forum.

Sarcasm doesn't work on the internet, well, unless in video form.

Yes, I know, but dictionaries aren't updated according to how TIBB defines a term.

It works for me, because I used it and told you it was sarcasm.

Where do you get the impression I did? I just saw the suggestion forum and thought I'd suggest changing the word used, because, to most people, infraction means a minor legal wrong doing.

You are right, however as the meaning becomes better know, the dictionary will be updated.

If it worked, you wouldn't have had to explain.
