1. Is there some sort of "cooldown" on repeat offences? If I broke a rule and got my content removed, then say after a period of time, I broke the same rule again, will the fact that I broke the exact rule before be considered for the punishment for the second offence? Suppose i got a warning for the first one, assuming that my request on that one is rejected, would the second offence always result in a harsher punishment or can it still be a warning? Is there any period of time after where the first offence (where the request is rejected) becomes invalid and later punishments lenient treating the offence as the first offence, or will it always always be considered for later offences and subsequent punishments will always be harsher?

2. Is there any actual difference between being suspended and being b*nned? For some users, I can see their profiles, but for other's I see a message saying that the user has been b*nned. Is this the difference?

3. How are some suspended/b*nned users create and keep using a new account? Don't get me wrong, I am not here for tips on how to do that. I am just curious, reddit takes evasions very seriously. if I am interpreting the data correctly, then 52.50 admin b*ns in 2021 were for evasion. so how are there people who can just evade with no consequences (apologies if I am misinterpreting the data, correct me if I am wrong)? Does the difference between suspension and b*n plays a role here? Or am I just seeing a very small percentage of evaders who managed to not get caught and treating it as if it's a common thing?

4. Does it affect how seriously admins take an offence, while submitting a request, depending on whether it was reported by a user or whether it was flagged by automation? Or is it purely on the basis of severity of the offence?

Thanks in advance.
