The ban duration is not displayed so scrapers won't know when they can resume scraping. It is by design. And the ban extension thingy depends on how much the server gets "hammered" after the ban was cast. Displaying any reasonable numbers on how much a ban might get extended is just stupid and most likely wrong anyway. |
