I believe tess explained this earlier in the post >D<

Warnings always remain on the account even if the warning level goes back to 0. If you've ever received a warning at any time then your account is still considered to have a warning - unless the staff decided it was a mistake and removed it. However if your warning happened a long time ago (like over a year ago) or if it wasn't a very serious mistake then we might decide not to count it against you.
It's easy to say people with old warnings have learned from their mistakes and will be better in future. That's usually true, and that's why we usually warn people instead of banning them the first time they mess up. But we get plenty of applicants who have always behaved themselves and followed the rules without ever needing to be warned, so they're going to be more desirable for us to hire. People with a lot of activity and no warnings have a much better track record than someone who's been in trouble a lot.
