@Konakaga: I know you can hide your infractions (I mentioned it in the OP), but you still know they're there if you click it again!
@TheFluff: I guess that's a healthy attitude
@Daniel E.: I understand the sentiment, but I'd still prefer them not to be there...
While I'm all for remembering past mistakes, at some point it gets a little absurd. Remembering mistakes from 3 or 4 years back is beginning to get there. After that length of time most people will have learnt the rules well enough to not make infractionable mistakes again, I would think.
