Did I say I was a Latin scholar?
Maybe something like 'interdictum in perpetuum'? Sounds bad-ass, actually.

google says "ban permanens" which is massively disappointing

interdicum in perpetuum sounds appropriately biblical

You speak at least two Romance languages, you’re probably able to fake it enough (at least for a pleb like me not to know better)

I don't see what the problem is here, once Comrade Alphabet has racked up enough FPs he'll be banned, you, of all people, should know that, Fred.

Knowledge of Romance languages does help, true. Latin grammar is a mad science unto itself tho.

And the reason this thread was revived is that it's the third time in a couple of weeks - I think - where the behaviour of xyzzz has caused people to call for him being thread banned. Except never just him, always a group of people. It's quite interesting that nobody ever just goes 'get rid of the problem poster' but always has to both sides it.

interdicto means forbidden, which applies to actions not people
you want something more like banishment or casting out or being sent into exile, masculine singular gerundive form thereof
banished: expulsus, exemptus, excisus, profugus, extorris, ejectusexiled: profugus, extorrisdriven out: expulsus, eiectus, ejectus, extorris, exactus
other possible verbs (mostly with the suggestion of being physically chucked out): eructo, propello, apstergo, sepono, paello, pello, excutio, emitto
since banishment was an actual legal thing in the republic there must be a correct technical term of legal art, since the roman entity was a very legalistic one (even in the empire except by then murder was probably the preferred option) (i can't find my v small latin dictionary bcz lol a bulb isn't working in the right part of my flat) and plus on-line latin research is notoriously fucking useless

Makes sense, mark, although one may be interdictum from posting.

read some effing ovid:http://web.colby.edu/ovid-censorship/exile/history-of-roman-exile/
(turns out "aquae et ignis Interdictio" is a banishment-related thing tho it has a heavily symbolic framing)
― mark s, Tuesday, 4 February 2020 16:36 (four years ago) link
Tbf is being permabanned (from posting) the same thing as being banished? Lurking remains an option for the permabanned of ILX whereas banishment from Rome is more than just a sentence of non-participation.

LBI - I am not trolling actually.
The vast majority of posts from myself (as I was called to be thread banned by a poster I hardly interact with, a tantrum for real) on the Berners thread has been info as we get it from twitter. Mordy posted the Iowa turn out info many hours after I posted the same on the Berners thread. I followed the story first thing by using ilx and twitter.

Fwiw there isn't one in French and Romanian either, so that would be my amateurish guess as well.
The cognate verb 'bannir' comes close but it doesn't serve quite the same purposes in French.
Anyway, props for the quality chime-in.
