What does "Requested ban" mean ?

It's a perfomative action to show they have left the forum for a indefinite amount of time, also helps them stop using the site.
 
A requested ban is issued via the warning system, a perm is issued by a different menu. Using the system to perm people a ban can be allocated for a certain amount of time. I tend to use that instead of a requested ban when giving out self bans for a certain amount of time.

Half the users who were active these 3 last weeks now have "requested ban" next to their profile :sadge: Thanks for the answer much appreciated
 
On a functional level on the user end, it's identical to a normal ban. Functionally, one is triggered via the warn system, and another is triggered by the ban feature.

The warning system is where users collect warning points. When a user triggers 100%+ points, they will be issued a ban, but you can be issued a ban without collecting 100% first. That's what the ban feature is for.

However the reason why you might've gotten the previous banner is sometimes mods will use the traditional ban feature to issue some self bans just because the timer is a bit easier to use on there and it gives users a date/time. When a warning is set to expire via the warn system, a user doesn't see the timer on their end because they don't see the warning history or warning info that isn't sent in a PM.

You beat me to the punch.
 
But how can you get it ? When I asked for a ban it just gave me the black banner.
both requests have to be done manually by a mod. it just happens quickly sometimes because mods are secretly active
