Ban is the short term for banish, or to officially or legally prohibit something. Such prohibitions are usually based on the IP address that is used to identify different users and vary by cause. In echo chambers, one may get banned for certain words or phrases that could cause leakage such as muh racism or muh discrimination in general, though trigger-happy jannies may go about banning anyone they hate for no reason.

Types of Bans

Temporary Bans

The amount of time these banishments last may vary depending on the severity of the act according to jannies. More gimmicky or user-requested ones may last as short as one second. On the Sharty, these bans are usually instated over infractions such as "raisinflinging" or posting in irrelevant threads.

Permabans

On the Sharty and its splinters, these bans are given out to users who do heinous and illegal acts such as posting 'P or affiliating themselves with hostile communities of any kind.

Hardware Bans

This is the rarest and perhaps most severe type of ban as it can restrict an entire device from accessing a website regardless of IP address.
