> What is AutoBan and how does it differ from Permanent ban?
Does it work as the name implies? Which means no moderator bans you. Maybe the ban is triggered automatically by the system codes? If no, why is it called Autoban?
As far as I know, AutoBan is a permanent ban. The
Modlog displays, amongst other things, banned accounts over the last 30 days. The type of bans listed are "Autoban user" and "Nuke user", both being permanent bans. Nuked also see all their posts deleted, but can only apply (I believe- not sure though) if Activity <30. An account that is Nukable may not be Nuked, but simply Autobanned. Temporary bans are not displayed in the Modlog.
As to why the name Autoban itself, it looks as if it originates in Automatic Ban (likely extended to manual ban), but who knows. I can tell you it is not related to a
german highway though
