I agree on this, I have played many servers and none servers had the permanent ban policy, They ban players for 2-3 months for heavy rule break, and they also ban players for 1 year who breaks rule again and again within 2 months for bad admin record.
If those servers staff doesn't have problem doing their work, why not in Lsrcr?
This would also decrease ban evading and also players would always be in touch with this beautiful community.

Here's a tissue, You have little bullshit on your lip.
I see what you mean, but 99% of the time those who cheat are constant ban evaders, there are barely any new cheaters, and even if there are, they know it's a 1 time deal and once banned, they never apply for unban, only very very few do.
The players you talk about that see Ls-rcr as a "heaven", we also know that, and we give them much more chances because we understand they lack of English knowledge and maturity, we've been trying to fix that issue, translated the rules in 2 most commonly spoken language in our server, etc.
If we, let's say, implement what you suggest will only cause more disturbance and you will be affected too as a part of this community, that's why we try to balance it but sometimes it doesn't work and we have to suspend the players from playing. Yes, some bans are not really permanent because we believe in second chance and we have many players as an example.
Could be said that some of current permanent bans are not really permanent too, because as i said we believe in second chance, and if we see that certain player(s) deserve it we will give them a shot because after all we are all human beings.
