Two proposals.

I'd suggest renaming "temporary ban" to "suspension." Suspensions can be
made, lifted, renewed. Bans are permanent. Just a language thing. It might
better frame expectations and fears and avoid casual status confusion.

When we suspend someone, let's be clear about giving specifics about its
end: end dates and/or specific conditions to be met. The clarity should
drive better behavior and induce more suspendeds to try to restore harmony.
