    Don't get me wrong, I love this forum and everything, but the amount of people being banned on this forum... wow! I've never seen that on any other forum.

    At least 50 users a day are getting banned.

    I am sure you have good reasons to ban all those people, but sometimes I see people who are members for several years, have 500, 1000 or even 1500+ posts and iTrader ratings of 200+ and they still get banned.
    And when you check their last 100 posts they made... nothing looks suspicious.

    May I ask what the most common reason is to ban people here on this forum? Scammers? IP Sharing? Something else?

    And are these banns permanent?

    That's because rule-breaking posts are often deleted, so you wouldn't see them. People get banned when they repeatedly break the rules. Most bans are temporary -- they'll be back when some of the infractions expire.
