So i guess he wasn't netbanned. Well it all depends how long a zone ban was. Usually if it's just a week, that's normal. If it goes into months or years, then again that's an issue and it means the mods took it personally.
Of course if choas really wanted to focus on doing the right thing, they could create a bot that recognizes players by ip and alias, and will auto gag that player when they login. Making it impossible to evade the gag by signing off and on. With something like this, bans wouldn't be necessary at all. In fact being gagged in a zone is worse than any ban, especially if the gag lasts more than a day. People would voluntarily not enter the zone because they would want to talk to friends, or other players. But the point is, if they did want to enter the zone and play, they still could. Banning is archaic and wrong in my opinion for anyone but a hacker or a cheater.
Also i know something of axe, and axe is flamboiyant, he is somewhat of an actor, a flim flam man. You shouldn't take anything he says seriously. We used to have similar people in DSB, one was named Dirty Jackal, He would pretend he was younger than he actually is, talk like he is an idiot when he wasn't, and make up stories about his brother dying etc, and forum posts, and try convince people it was true.. said he took vitamin pills, and drugs and so on, very very dramatic. He was also European.. etc.
