Fun Fact - EverQuest 2 has had something like this in play for years now. Drunder server. Instead of perma banning an account, they were "Drundered" and all of their toons were moved there, and all future toons as well. No rules - you could openly bot, swear, hack, etc, whatever you wanted. But - there was zero GM assistance of any kind. You could continue to play and give them money, but if you ever had something go wrong -- too bad. That includes a stuck character. Stuck in an infinite loop and can't move? Too bad. Someone scammed you? Too bad. Someone threatened IRL bodily harm? Too bad. Someone found a way to hack the broker and stole your items? Too bad. 100% on your own permanently.
