Do bans lift automatically?

At the moment, I have a ban in the Mod CP under 'Bans Ending Soon' which says '( remaining)'.

Is it tied into the Task Manager?

Yes it has several options
One of them is yes "Ban will be lifted x days after"
the other says, "Ban will be lifted never "

They are tied to the task manager - bans are lifted automatically by the Half-hourly User Cleanup task.

If I remember right, when a user logs in, MyBB checks if the ban has expired. If it has, and the task hasn't run, then they will be "unbanned".

Thanks a lot, both.

No problem Rovin
