Temporary ban.

This message is never effective:
"Warning, ********. Letting time run out instead of resigning will result in a temporary ban.
With so many players who don't care of it, Could Lichess make this threat really active ?
I think I triggered this once on my mobile, since it wasn't properly connecting to games. I think it leads to a 10 minute ban, or a 20 minute ban if you trigger that warning three times in 1 minute. Probably it scales up with repeat offences.
same issue with: Leaving games without resigning, not effective....
To know if it's effective, you would have to compare with the situation without these warnings and bans.
BTW: What is the difference between #1 and #4?
I don’t think this is reinforced. I SAW ***** (unmentioned) had a 33% game completion rate (out of 1000 games) and did not take temporary ban.
It's only out of your last 30 losses, and I'm surprised it's possible not to be banned with 33%, I thought the threshold was 50%.
@Gamingapocolpse-11 I think the game completion rate only samples your last 10, 20, or 100 games or something, not all of your games? For example, mine says 93% completion rate, and my connection made me 'leave' 4 games today, but prior to that I had a 100% completion rate (and have never myself ever left a game, out of like 4000) - (which would suggest they sample your last 67 games, assuming those were my only 4 disconnects).
