E.g after some period of being suspended?  
Or does it need something from the suspended user?

Is there a general policy?

Or is it in general forever?

Ah thanks, I missed the last paragraph:

> After a predetermined period, not to exceed six months, the banned individual may request that the ban be lifted, by acknowledging his/her past violations and providing a written plan to avoid such violations in the future.
