Can admins change a persons first warning in forums to exactly that! Rather a flag posted publicly?

Apparently i have a mild warning now for multiple postings.
I can only assume this was due to my asking different people if they knew anything about the bunnyzilla tokens.
I had assumed that rule pertained to posts u make, such as i am here, not to conversations held within the posts in an attempt to gain answers.
I was NOT aware that asking different players the same question in hopes one would know the answer was considered a violation of the multiple post rule.
And now, with that flag, i feel like a criminal. IT certainly looks very bad.
I think someone should have spoken to me first before applying a publicly viewable warning next to my name that everyone can see should i speak on the forums.
It kinda feels like a betrayal in a way......
A punishment for something i didn't even know i was doing.......
I'm really very upset by this....

Thank you Cortana for clarifying only I and mods can see the warnings.
-------->So am i to assume the warning stands? Even though the forum rules were misunderstood? It says no spamming... I didnt spam.
I did ask few different folks i was chatting with the same question as i hadn't received an answer yet when my brain thought maybe they'd know, so ask.... But i did not make multiple posts. Simply chatted some people, in an attempt to gain an answer.
Is this really a violation of the forum rules? And yes i did just read them again!!! So i'm honestly asking...
And just to restate this, i am honestly asking. If it's wrong, if i did wrong, even unknowingly, then i apologize. Just trying to be sure i have the straight of it so i don't have issues in the future. Honestly.
And Yakroo, sorry if i snapped a little at you. I'm having a horrible day, and seeing this on my profile, when i honestly wasn't aware of any wrong-doing didn't help. So my apologies. I'll just go crawl under a rock for a while. Thanks.
Mutli-posting, or in other words posting multiple comments in a row, is basically this:
User1 - Hi!
User1 - I have some items to sell.
User1 - A bunny, and some other stuff.
User2 - Oh nice!
As you can see, the first user could have merged his reply into one:
User1 - Hi! I have some items to sell. A bunny, and some other stuff.
User2 - Oh nice!
It's there to prevent spam and forum flooding.
But Next Time Try To Pm A Mod If U Got A Warning Cuz They R All Nice And Understanding, Dont Rush Discussions That Makes U, Mods Or Anyone Else Look Bad >_>
If you are still dissatisfied with the answers given and still wish to discuss this, feel free to Private message me in regards.
And just so that you are aware. Multi posts are "merged & removed" by the moderators.
The text within the multi post is placed within the prior post, and the multi post is then deleted.
I Will leave the multi posts above, just as an example.
But here is one small tip;
Each post you make has an edit function.
