If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless. Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you. | Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’
James 1:26-27, Matthew 7:21-23

I'd like a second opinion, please. That's my first ever warning in 15 years of play. It was also an obvious play on words, based on the April Fools aspect. Should have been an unofficial warning, not an official warning.

Obviously I don't care that much about the outcome, as I'm unlikely to get another one - ever. I'm just looking for a bit of consistency on the severity of the ruling.

Keeping in mind of course that the punished don't get to choose their punishment, I'm going to grant the appeal to the extent that I'm reducing the warning to an unofficial warning. The mildness of the flame combined with your otherwise clean record both contributed to the decision.
