Not super formal like you are speaking at a very well-to-do dinner with royal dignitaries, but none the less. Also that the warning should be specific to the user and the exact thing that is being done so the user in question isn't left confused as to what the warning is about. (Kind of common sense, but I like chatting about this stuff anyways. XP)

I feel that sometimes prier to someone getting an official warning, that a moderator could perhaps give friendly suggestions along the lines of "please stop" or "If you keep this up I will have to give you a warning." Then again, that shouldn't be an excuse for a moderator to slack and just give unofficial warnings over and over and over again....

All that being said, I cast my vote if acceptable.

Vote: (D)

I personally feel the idea being a mix of A and D. Address the user with a "Warning" and then politely describe the reason for said warning. Example: (Because I love examples.)

"John Doe; Warning issued: For excessively speaking about unwashed underwear to the annoyance and discomfort of other users."

Meh, something along those lines giver or take.... At least that's how I'd handle it.... Whether they include the reason for the warning or not is the preference of the mod. Sounds more or less like A, though I may be wrong.

Hum... maybe it is "A" that my vote best resides. As long as the warning is clear and understood by the person being warned that it is an official warning and what the warning is for I have no issues.
