It depends on the offense, but here are some ideas for specific ones:

I think we shouldn't ban people for a week due to them creating "spam pages". It seems like overkill. Instead, warn them the first or second times. After that, anywhere from 5 minutes to half an hour (if this isn't possible, then 1 day), increasing in length from then on like normal.

For ALAB, warn after failure. Most people will not listen to the automated message, so notify them that it's not just for show and do the whole ban thing if they don't listen then.

I imagine similiar responses for stuff like OC (assuming that's not the current way), blogicles and so on. It's basically a matter of dealing with people while not coming off as trigger-happy.
