or are you banned forever?
If behavior in PRSI leads to a suspension, it can a year. It can be a lot longer. It can be forever. The better path is to not get suspended. We are guests in someone’s sandbox. Their rules. Submitting a request to get back privileges after one year, is not getting back in.
If the request to be readmitted to PRSI after a ban lasting a year has been accepted, then, actually, "it is getting back in".
However, it is "getting back in" with conditions, the same conditions that apply to anyone who is a member, namely that the rules be adhered to.
