tbh anyone can get banned for something like this, putting myself in this number. The line between playing according the rest of the players and breaking the server rules is very thin. Lets be honest, the rules can be interpret differently, its hard to say whether a bug is major or not, whether a player abused or unintentionally came across a server flaw, in such situation, punishment should not be too harsh and give the player a chance for pardon.
There is another problem- how fair it is, when few get a harsh punishments and many which also "abused" the same glitch and not get caught.
Keep in mind many of us dont have the deep knowledge of how various stuff should be, are they bugged, or is it an intentional "temporary" solution. We all know not everything is totally blizzlike and both players and server management makes compromises regarding the content. There is also the factor of private server mindset, some of us played so long that kind of servers, thats its something normal mine deposits for example to be spawning on the same locations, with a set respawn timer, of 45mnts for example; how many will conclude thats a server flaw and not a compromise; how harsh a punishment against players farming that should be?
I am honestly starting to feel endangered of accidentally breaking one of the very "flexible" server rules, because we all are walking on that thin ice during every bit of our game experience. It reminds me of another very autocratic server, which name ill refrain mentioning
