I'm not a mod, but from what I've gleaned it's almost never a one-time offense that leads to banning. Usually it's a pattern of behavior including an unwillingness to submit to the rules of the site and work with the mods to bring their participation into community standards.
I have been privy to a couple fairly dramatic exits from TFP, though... But without those folks' permission to share, I don't think it'd be right to tell tales.
