Many time it happens that some good users start to spam our sites and there is no way to stop them other then to permanently block them or delete them.
It would be nice to have a system in which we block a user for a day, in which if he tries to access his account then a notice will be shown that he/she cannot access the account for a day due to some of their unhealthy task for site. And then after a day that block automatically get removed.
If the same user does it twice the he can be blocked for a week after that blocking for two weeks and finally permanent block.

With this an administrator request area can also be there where the user can talk to admin and if he promises that he won't do it again the his block can be revoked. (I do not want to use feedback from for admin request, feedback is totally for another scenario).

This kind of a system is there in vbulletin and it attracted me so I am sharing and requesting for such a feature in q2a.
