Firstly may I state that you were never given a warning for posting a one word reply, only an unofficial warning. As Ambi said, we only enforce the rules and that is a rule.
:
Do not, under any circumstances spam. Spam can be defined as posting excessively, flooding, excessive advertising, double posting, posting irrelevant replies or posting replies containing the bare minimum of words. As a result of spamming, the offender(s) will be dealt with by staff members, in one of two manners, these being: warnings and / or post deletion.

And if you would care for a step by step PM into why you were given a warning for spamming continously in the Trainspotting thread, please PM me and I'll be happy to show you.
As others have said, rules are important. The let the forums run smoothly and we have never had a problem with the one word posting rule before.
