@gimusi I am trying to check whether there is some FAQ for flag bans. Did you try to have a look too, for example among the posts tagged flag-ban on the main meta?

Do you get some kind of message that looks similarly to this?

I have taken it from: I don't know how long I'm flag banned for, and that would be useful to know.

Perhaps the advice from this answer might be useful: Immediately rebanned after flag ban was lifted; should I wait to flag again?

> To answer your question, if you want to prevent an immediate re-ban after being banned, caused by a helpful flag, I'd suggest waiting a couple more days for some of your past flags' handling time to become more than seven days ago. But if the proportion of your declined flags is so high, such that you risk getting re-banned for a helpful flag, I'd look into your flag history and make changes to your flagging patterns, because apparently you need to improve them.

Thanks @MartinSleziak for your support, I'm going to take a look to that!

In any case, I don't have much better advice than waiting. (I assume that you got some message How long you have to wait before you can flag again.)

I'm curious to see when I encounter the problem with some type of automated ban. I'd guess that what can happen most likely to me is a question ban either on MathOverflow or on some site which I do not use frequently and where I only have a few questions.

@MartinSleziak I've flagged some targeted downvoting (my guess) and past days those have been considered helpful but some recent ones were declined. It is not simple understand how to deal with flagging.

@MartinSleziak Yes exactly that one!

In case it helps - this is example of a pinned message. Look on the right in the starboard. (It will also be listed in the stars tab.)

@gimusi See also: "How do I star or pin things? And why?" in the [chat FAQ](How do I star or pin things? And why?). Meta Stack Exchange: chat-pins and chat-stars.

This is what you can now see in the starboard on the right:

@MartinSleziak Ah ok thanks, that's useful to put messages to the attention of others. Ok that's useful. Thanks

Yes, I wasn't aware about the pinning part from chat adm.

But room owner can also pin message - which is very similar, but the pinned messages stays at the the top even if other messages are starred. (For some times. IIRC a pinned message is changed to a normal star after 14 days.)
