Jesus, some users really need to shape up. Some people had 3 bans just in January. How many bans are users allowed before they are permabanned?

Well, users first get a warning for the respective offence ( trolling/flaming/spamming/alts/other), then it goes to bans ( 1-3-5-7-10-14-20-30 days). Sometimes it goes to 45 days or even 60 days, but only if the mods feel like  the user still has a chance to improve his/her behavior. If an user stays a while without getting banned (a number of months) then the user will get either a warning or a weaker ban. 

Oh, alright. That makes sense.

The users  that reach the 30 days limit are the ones that are most likely to get permabanned. There are some exceptions like Carl and Snesboy that had their trollish periods, but became nicer users in the meantime.
