I don't know if the answer is already answered, but I didn't find it. It's only a curiosity.
Example: I create a giveaway. An user enter to that giveaway I created. Days after it, the user gets a 1 week suspension. The giveaway end two days after that suspension starts. Can that user win the giveaway even owning that suspension? If yes, can the user activate the key if the creator send it? And, if the suspension is permanent?
Thank you :)

That's up to you. You're entitled to re-roll the giveaway if you'd like, or send the gift.
I was under the assumption that users cannot win giveaways while suspended, though ...

If the suspension is permanent, I'd reroll, because they won't be able to mark it received. :P

No. Suspended users aren't elegible to win any entered giveaway when it ends.

All giveaway entries are treated equally, and when a giveaway ends, the site will randomly select a winner. Users that are suspended during the selection process are unable to win, and their entries will be excluded when the winner is generated.

From the FAQ. There we go, answered my own (doubt) question as well. :3

Oh nice! I missed that part. So even if the suspension left 15 minutes, if the giveaway ends, that user can't win. Nice to know. Thank you! You won a blue heart 😊

Totally not necessary, but definitely appreciated. I had to check for myself because your question raised a doubt in my mind. Again, thank you, I'm humbled.

No problem :) They are the rare questions I make at 3:00 am, and it's good to know, of course.
So, question answered, post closed :)

Como veo que hablas español, espero que no te importe que te lo diga así, que el inglés no termino de dominarlo. Entonces si un usuario está suspendido por X días o semanas, aun siguiendo en la lista de "entries" del sorteo, es inelegible para ganar? digamos que habría como uno menos participando aunque siga en la lista de las "entries". Es que claro, normalmente cuando alguien gana un sorteo mío le doy la clave, sin mirar el perfil. Y claro, estoy aquí con la curiosidad de si alguien baneado puede ver la key, activarla y, dado que está suspendido no puede marcarla como recibida, yo pierdo la key y además perdería el giveaway y tendría que eliminarlo.
