from what i know, it depends on the offense as to whether a ban is permanent. i know if you're banned because you're not 16 yet, the ban might be lifted once you are old enough. but for other kinds of things, like flaming and abusive behavior, i'm assuming bans can be more permanent.
i'm certainly not an expert on this, though.^^ __________________  ava & sig by me from hokuto yamagichi's wild rose <3
