DEATH TO AMERICA

I'll give a slightly different perspective than Smythe on this.
First, it's important to acknowledge that there's effectively two kinds of permabans, single act and lifetime achievement. In single act, the person might otherwise be a fine poster but did something so beyond the pale that it was felt necessary to remove them from the community forever. This is stuff like pedo poo poo, doxxing, nazi poo poo, etc. In lifetime achievement, it's not that any single act that they did was so heinous it demands immediate removal but rather that they have a long term negative effect on the community that rises to such a level that they need to be removed AND talking, probes, bans, and community pressure have failed to make them a good enough poster to not warrant removal.
The critical question with applying a ban to a rereg of a permabanned account is whether we think they're going to engage in the behavior that got them permabanned in the first place. With single act, the thinking is generally that if they did something once, they can do it again and no one wants to wait around for that to happen, so they're removed immediately. This is pretty intuitive, if someone is outed as enjoying pedo parasite dick rape mpreg porn, no one wants to wait around for that to work its way into their posting even if all they're doing is posting anodyne takes on the stock market. With lifetime achievement folks, it does get a little more complicated because with the passage of time, people can and do change enough that they might be able to be trusted to not repeat the same patterns of behavior that got them in trouble in the first place.
This next part isn't official policy, and to be clear, I am just speaking for myself and how I would handle a hypothetical situation where this arose. If someone had a lifetime achievement perma and reregged and flew under the radar for a sufficiently long time that I didn't personally think they would repeat the bad behavior, I would take it to the admins and Jeffrey and see if they were willing to lift the perma. Every situation is going to be unique, so i'm not saying that the perma would necessarily be lifted mind you, but that would be how I would personally handle it.
