It’s never made sense to me that a user who is micspamming, but otherwise not being disruptive, is banned from playing the game. We have the ability to gag them, why not just make that the punishment? Then we don’t lose a player for what is admittedly a very silly offense
 
The first ban for spam is a 1 day ban already. It then progresses to 5 days, 2 weeks, then doubles per offense. A mute/gag + warning, followed by an rmute/that is applied per session before the ban. So nobody is getting banned for spam unless they're doing it 3+ times per session and repeatedly ignoring warnings, and nobody is getting banned more than one day unless they're managing to get banned more than once in a short period of time.

A 5 day ban for mic spam second might seem harsh, but at minimum you would have needed to spam 6+ times over 2+ sessions, ignoring 4+ warnings, and having already served out a 1 day ban for a previous offense.
Oh I thought 5 day ban was the first one. I don't think I recall seeing people get the 1 day ban
