A) A ban of one month lasts ... B) a ban of ... C) Evading a ban is itself ...
To make it as clear as I can, since a couple of people have asked, A, B, and C are different *possibilities* - different schools of thought - on what might be an appropriate response. So yes, they are contradictory - which is why we have to choose A *or* B *or* C. Cf [[wikipedia talk:banning policy]].
So no, we're not going to apply A, B, and C all at once. Just B, as far as I can tell, unless anyone cares sufficiently to propose a change. Ok?
