Did rules on temporary offence changed?

[tranthidung]

Today I saw this thread:
Unrealized mistake and unban reaquest @theymos and mods
In which, OP (Palmodar) said that he has been temporarily banned with ban duration is 10 days. That is a very strange ban duration.

So, did the rules on temporary offence changed since the ban wave in April too?
Nowadays, there are different ban duration, with signature ban or without signature ban, I guess.

As I know of, there are three levels of temporary offence:

First offence: 7 days
Second offence: 14 days
Third offence: 30 days

There are no set rules on how long you can be banned for. A mod can give you a 1 day ban or 100000 day ban if they see fit.

7, 14 and 30 day bans are the most common ones used by global mods and admins. While I usually default to these, whenever there's a situation where an offense just doesn't match the most common severity levels (is lower than the lowest, higher than the highest or in between), I tend to use 3, 5, 10 or 60 days for such offenses.

I understood, but the guide of @hilariousandco should be updated with a few words on what you both disclosed.
Currently, if a newbie visits that thread, they will be misguided somehow. They will think there are only three types of temporary bans, with 7-days, 14-days, and 30-days ban period.

Staff do not want to hand out bans for unconstructive posts but if we feel that you as a user are continually making very poor or unsubstantial posts due to your paid signature the following bans will be issued:

First offence: 7 days
Second offence: 14 days
Third offence: 30 days
Fourth: Permanent ban

I also know there is a rule quoted below, but I still think if that guide updated with some details on ban periods of temporary bans, it is likely better, IMO.

23. When deciding if a user has broken the rules, the staff have the right to follow their interpretation of the rules.[e]

The issue with that is that's how I do it. Other global mods or admins might have their own go-to ban durations. As hilariousandco said, there are no set durations, only common practices (then again the same applies to the forum's rules, hence the "unofficial" tag at the start of my rule thread's title).

What does the signature campaign guidelines thread have to do with a person getting banned for posting in a giveaway?

No. I don't argue about it. Just think (as @mprep posted). Adding common, only that word is enough and I think less people will ask about it. For now, people (or at least me), if only look at that guide, will think there are only three types of temporary offence.

If you think my suggestion to add that word 'common' makes sense, please edit that guide. If not, please let me know, then I will lock this thread.

It's a guide about signature campaigns. You misinterpreted it to mean bans for everything else.
