Classic "honest mistake"™. Followed by people calling for immediate cease of any critique since "they are very sorry and corrected the error". In all seriousness though: It's time to find some name for this behaviour where the only chance for support or help is being a VIP or making the news headlines somehow.

Plebanning? The act of banning a John Doe that will never have the connections to revert the ban. "I'm a VIP, you can't pleban me." Any other term more fun and memorable?

How about frontpaged? “Zuck permabanned me but I frontpaged to get back my account”

  I like this more because it doesn't focus on ban, sometimes it is an issue of lost access and inability to recover. Also it highlights the channel of recovery, which is the frontpage of some site

    Oopsieban instead of permaban, I'm loving it.
