There is no difference at all between a permanent ban and a cumulative ban of 2-3 months. The only thing that could be changed, for the sake of fairness, is to give a warning ban the first time (the duration is not particularly important, since it is essentially just a marker for the player). In general, I have trouble imagining what would have to happen on the forum for a ban to become a problem.
When I first came to the forum, I was amazed at how friendly the Heroes community behaves. And this behavior is contagious — you want to learn, to help newcomers, you simply get used to being polite. And when someone disruptive tries to barge into this world, it immediately stands out and, as has been said, the collective simply drives that individual out. Here we are talking about the forum, not about individuals; it is like an organism. If a person accumulates so many points that they end up banned, a diagnosis can be made. All of this is relevant for a healthy forum and healthy communication within it. I don't see how a permanent ban could get in the way here.
By the way, the idea of writing off some number of points, for example once per season, is a good one — I support it.

Voted for the first option. There shouldn't be a permanent ban.

I support the idea of a "temporary ban" with a progression system. From 2-3 months to indefinitely... And all sorts of subjective polls like "execute or pardon" - to hell with them. Option 4.

+1, a 3-month corrective ban is enough, in my opinion. :)

4. While I agree with the idea of a permanent ban, I'd like to add that since points are only accumulated, and even a small number can be given for random violations (spam, off-topic posts, or if a moderator misunderstands something, etc.), and sooner or later everyone could end up being banned, we should occasionally have "forgiveness days" where 5-15 points are removed. With such a system, there would be order, and those who don't want to be banned won't be.

because points only accumulate, and even a small amount can be given for random violations (spam, off-topic, or if a moderator misinterpreted something, etc.), and sooner or later everyone can end up banned.

It will become relevant for everyone when everyone reaches that threshold :D But that won't happen soon, maybe in 20 years. By then, the games themselves will no longer be relevant for many :D

Replace the period of "eternity" in relation to a ban with a period of "month." Ask the creator to arrange it so that when a repentant user exits a ban, the system deducts a certain number of points (25, for example; I think that's enough for relative freedom).
I think this is perfect.
