Punishments for pilots

Hello,
I am wondering, What types of mistakes can lead to what types of punishments for a pilot? Does a pilot lose license for lifetime? or its penalties? or probation? or jail time?

Re: Blacklisted IP

if its dynamic IP, you can get another one, maybe reset the modem coming from your ISP and get new IP, or you can just call your ISP and get another IP assigned. I am afraid, if your IP range has been blacklisted then it will little harder.
