Why do people have double yellow belts?

I am new here and have seen various double yellow belts. Can someone please explain the significance and how you get them? Thank you.

From Faq:
Double Yellow Infractions

1. Fighter Bashing (including refs, promoters and the like) won't be tolerated anywhere on the board. Criticism is fine, flaming isn't. Minor bashing such as "so and so sucks, is a dick, etc." is a double yellow, while extreme bashing like "so and so is a pile of shit, ***got, etc." will result in a ban.

2. Hateful Comments ("Shut up ***," "Fuck you Newb," etc.) - some leniency given to the off-topic area only.

3. Postwhoring. Posting "+1," "too long, didn't read," "rickson by armbar," empty quoting, etc., will result in a double yellow card and post count reduction.

4. Scrollbombs or posts designed to cause thread or computer problems.

5. Posting/soliciting video clips of events recently shown on pay per view.

6. Nudity. No bareass, assfloss, nipples or graphic poses, avatars included.

7. Copyright infringement. Ex: If a site posts and interview, post a link don't cut and paste the entire article.

Okay great,

But how do we know what infraction was caused to get some dubs thrown on you?
I post here maybe once a week or so, and lo and behold, I come back and have double yellows. Is there a way to find out WHY double yellows were given?

maybe fighter bashing

"The guy hits like he's playing patty cake. Forget the weight limit if he's half the man he thinks he is he should fight Chuck straight up.

Isn't Chuck going to squash this arguement when he fights Tommy Morrison anyways"

I don't know man, that seems about as border-line as fighter bashing can get IMHO. I didn't see the context of the conversastion, but the fact is PBF is not known for being the hardest hitter. And as far as the "half the man he thinks he is" comment, no one has ever accused Floyd of being mature or humble either. So the guy worded it with a little humor, I personally don't think that would warrant dubs.

Its like saying that my Bears couldn't pass their way out of a wet paper bag. Sure its slightly insulting but no one can deny its true.

ADDED: And with over 15 posts per day since he started in Jan...I'm gonna put my $$ on postwhoring as the reason por el doobs.

I got pinched and I consider most of my stuff pretty tame compared to most of the posts I read. My advice, lay low for a while and don't post anything that can in any way be taken as argumentative or inflammatory.
