Re: BOs in competitions resulting in a ban?

Yeah, 2 weeks is a lot. I think there definately should be different sanctions depending on the severity.
IE if someone has a deep BO in cw, 2 weeks is not at all over the top, just from a health point of view.
Then again, a "small" bo in static or dynamic is usually less severe. So maybe just DQ:ing that particular day or something would do.
Sometimes there are so few competitors for example, or the level is so low, that it is possible that a diver with a BO can still be in the medals. Personally, I think this does not send the right message to anyone involved...So I think a BO in the results of a competition should nullify the total points count for the person for that day. So if for example the comp was dyn+sta, and the person had a BO in the latter, total points would be zero, but they would still get to keep their rank in DYN.
Sound too harsh?
