If you have been asked to leave because of having your gun at a place that does not have signs. . . Does that count as warning for ever or can you carry there again and leave again if they ask you too?

30.06 of the Penal Code says that oral notice is enough "notice" to force you to leave the premisses.

§ 30.06. TRESPASS BY HOLDER OF LICENSE TO CARRY CONCEALED
HANDGUN. (a) A license holder commits an offense if the license
holder:
(1) carries a handgun under the authority of
Subchapter H, Chapter 411, Government Code, on property of another
without effective consent; and
(2) received notice that:
(A) entry on the property by a license holder
with a concealed handgun was forbidden; or
(B) remaining on the property with a concealed
handgun was forbidden and failed to depart.
(b) For purposes of this section, a person receives notice
if the owner of the property or someone with apparent authority to
act for the owner provides notice to the person by oral or written
communication.


Once (2)(a) has been done, you cannot return to the property a second time with your firearm. If you do, you can be charged with trespass and its a Class A misdemeanor in this section.
