Is it worth changing the Punishment System on the forums to one that results in a permanent ban?

1. Interested parties initiate an Open Poll in that Section(s) of the Resource where the Player "resided." A vote is held on the topic: "for" unbanning, or "against" unbanning. Forum members who have been registered for at least 1 month (the period is not critical) before the Player is placed in a Permanent Ban can vote in the Poll. Based on the results, the Player is removed from the Permanent Ban with a "minus" of 100 Violation Points (or, accordingly, is not removed). There can only be one vote for each instance of a Permanent Ban. And so on, endlessly, as long as the Players trust the administration.

Pasha, don't you understand that all these votes about unbanning are nonsense? It turns out that if you have many friends who will vouch for you, you can do and say anything you want?

2. System.
There is no system for assigning Points; moderators simply remove insults and profanity, and everything else for which Points were assigned.

At some point, we will face the fact that moderators will stop cleaning up all the mess (they'll say there is no system, so let it be), and the forum will turn into a garbage dump.

3. The Punishment System on the forum should not be changed.

It doesn't need to be changed. This system has existed for several years and, for some reason, except for WLK777, it suits everyone (I'm talking about this section; I don't know about others). Why do you think that is?

4. Something else.

I think that before opening this topic, it would have been possible to somehow reveal the "something else" option; otherwise, we will have to open another topic with another vote. Although this is already the norm. :)

If we are going to change something, we can replace the permanent ban with a temporary one, but the period should increase in progression for each subsequent ban. And deducting a few points on holidays (Oelm suggested) is also a useful option, because points are not only given for swearing. And getting banned, for example, because you "use a font larger than 3 in your signature" is somehow wrong.
