Banning is permanent. Your account can also be "frozen," which is sort of a temporary ban.

Is it possible to ask a mod why someone got banned or is that a breach of rules??

Most of the time the ban is between the site staff and the user who got banned.

Banning is permanent, unless an admin reverses it.
Usually people are banned for being bots or breaking the rules.

actually, there is such a thing a a temporary ban, but it is only used for members who join before they are 13. otherwise, every ban you see is a permanent ban.

the reasons for a specific ban are communicated directly to the person who was banned, and it is their choice whether or not to tell them to you.
