The Ora Chronicles Wiki:Policy/Blocks

If an user has repeatedly violated the rules and doesn't show any reason he can be blocked. The length of blocks may or may not increase every time an user is blocked, depending on the situation and for the kind of misbehaviour the user showed before being blocked. Everything should happen with the approval of the bureaucrats. All powerholders can only block or ban up to one day without a consent. Furthermore, if an user requests to be blocked this request will be denied. If an user has been rightfully blocked five times, after the sixth offense there can be a vote whether this user should get blocked for infinite. For the case an user causes severe trouble and shows totally inconvincible behaviour a vote for an infinite block can happen earlier. As rightful blocks count all blocks which are not in any way questionable and are not extensions of existing blocks. After the user has been blocked for infinite, there has to pass a year, before there will be another vote in which it is decided whether the blocked user will be amnestied or whether the block should stay for another year. Every time the user is caught sockpuppeting, the year will start again. If the user is amnestied and he breaks the rules again there can instantly be another block vote, with the same procedere to start again.
