Because those don't teach anything.

Only long bans that are permanent give lessons. Warnings and suspensions just make the person realize why they were caught, they don't teach any lessons though, meaning the person is still going to continue what they were doing, just in a different way.

It also depends how the person broke the rules. For example, if it was an accidental breaking of the rules, any form of punishment, no matter how small, will insure it will never happen again. But for problems that troop caused, a simple warning or week long suspension will not stop him from continuing on in the future.

That's why only permanent bans being lifted should count as new chances. If he has never had a previous permanent ban lifted before, then he has never gotten any second chances. Red flags, maybe, but no second chances.


Hurr, no. That's the stupidest logic. Using your reasoning, people should be allowed to do whatever they want and have no worry about ruining their "first" chance until they're banned permanently. Only "permanent" is anything but with your logic.

The same stupid flaw happens with many court systems. Being sentenced to life is a joke. Most people get out on parole. Knowing this, they don't actually have to be rehabilitated. They just have to play nice. It doesn't teach anybody anything. Besides, you can't rehabilitate people that don't want to be rehabilitated. Like BlueThen said, bans aren't to rehabilitate people. It's to keep the community nice. That's why I support prisons, not because it can rehabilitate people, but that it gets assholes off the streets.
