BAN LIFE— ORIGIN, MEANING & USAGE

ban life French forum and gaming slang for a lifetime ban from an account, game or community, a variant of « ban à vie » mixing French and English. It is thinly documented and is used with a dramatic or joking tone when a user is excluded for good.

Origin:No page opened documents « ban life » as a term. A search of Jeuxvideo.com threads returned only 2006 to 2009 discussions of temporary (about 30 days) and definitive bans, with no use of the phrase. It is kept as a thin record next to « ban def » and the corpus entries « permaban » and « ban wave »; its exact usage and date are not established. This entry describes the moderation practice only.

BAN DEF— ORIGIN, MEANING & USAGE

ban def French internet slang for a permanent ban from a forum, community or online account, short for « ban définitif ». It is a forum-moderation term, typically heard in reports of a user being excluded for good, often with an exasperated or joking tone.

Origin:Wiktionnaire describes « ban def » as an internet slang noun phrase, a portmanteau of « ban » and « définitif », marks its date as to be specified and the entry as needing a reference. It quotes a Jeuxvideo.com post dated 23 June 2019 (user ShacoId). Old Jeuxvideo.com forum threads from 2006 to 2009 also distinguish temporary bans from definitive ones, which shows the underlying practice, but none of the pages consulted dates the shortened form itself. This entry describes the moderation practice only.
