Default Time Outs/Bans

I have a question (I guess directly to the admins?), and I did not know where else to put it.

I searched the site, but I am unable to find any information in the TOS related to time out/bans (except for permanent bans related to racism).

What I am specifically wondering about is if there is some sort of system in place related to "repeat offenders".

Meaning, if a person gets Timed Out for two days for an infraction/ "not acceptable behavior" (just going to call it infraction for the sake of conversation), if they commit the same infraction and get another Time Out, will the number of days for the Time Out increase (for example, the next time it happens it goes to seven days, the next fourteen, etc.)?

Also, is there any stopping point? Can people receive only so many Time Outs before getting Banned? Or so many Time Outs over a certain period of time before being Banned? (whether it be for the same type of infraction, or different ones).

I guess what I am wondering is what motivation is there for someone to not be Timed Out a second, third, etc., time?

This question is not coming up for any actual reason (I have no concerns about the current system), it just popped into my head, so I thought I would ask it. With the site being so new, I was wondering if it has even been thought about yet.

Thanks.
