    The temporary bans are clearly to allow identification of repeat offenders, so that they can be psychologically profiled, to build a block list that targets a very distinct kind of user.

      Isn’t it more likely that it is just the mods issuing users a temporary punishment for breaking the rules hoping they learn?

      Again, as I said before, unless you have a specific reason as to why they would be doing that, you can safely assume that they are not.
