It's more so the offenses which lead to the 3 official warnings, or so I've been told they'll issue 3 warnings, the 3rd being the final.
Users on here do not realize that the admins CAN see ALL users who post, even the anonymous ones. So if a user is trolling anonymously and thinks that removed answers and questions are simply that, they're wrong. The admins can see who asks/answers what and if they see a user is a repeat offender of trolling(posting racist/illegal/cyber bullying classified material), they'll issue warnings I'm assuming and then if such warnings go ignored, then they'll ban.
Plain and simple. There's no explanation needed if a user knows they are trolling. Too many users on here will troll then try to play victim and act as though the admins owe them something.
Generally, it's 3 warnings
Never received a warning, so can't explain much else

I think its the offenses themselves and not the number.
Ive had numerous questions/answers removed, as have other mods and members here.
The ones who get their accounts banned are the ones who are spamming, underage, deliberately breaking the rules, trolling, etc.
They get a couple warnings but if enough people complain they get removed.
I think 3...Is getting a ? removed considered a warning? lol
It depends on your reputation. If the admins feel that you maybe made an honest mistake by being crude and offensive, you get a warning. In this case, having a history as a valuable contributor to this site will help you stay above water. Of course, after so many warnings you're done.
There are ways to get instantly banned.
-Making personal threats to another user.
-Making offensive remarks about race and/or sexual orientation.
-Making sexually explicit advances towards other users/posting nude pictures or links.
-Impersonating another user.

So far as I know, there is no set limit.
Definitely the Admin can ban anyone at any time regardless of the number of warnings.
I know that I've received a few warnings for snarky comments that were reported as being rude or unhelpful. But not every snarky comment I've ever made has been reported and deleted with a warning. So there's some inconsistency there.
We can all get carried away sometimes with the informal casual conversational style of the QnA's and thus wind up saying things which are not particularly helpful. But we should always try to remember that unhelpful questions don't deserve a rude answer. Just no answer. And the site is here to help people, so spend time doing that instead.When I was banned last year I got no warning which was too bad for me because the acc was nearly lvl 10 and I heard other people got warnings so idk. Must've made someone rage.
But srs sounds like the admins should chillI don't think there's a specific number. You can be banned anytime if you p*ss the admins off.
Well I've gotten two warnings and a Final warning so three?
I think they have a three warning policy.
