Here you can control the banning of users by name, IP or email address. These methods prevent a user reaching any part of the board. You can give a short (maximum 3000 characters) reason for the ban if you wish. This will be displayed in the admin log. The duration of a ban can also be specified. If you want the ban to end on a specific date rather than after a set time period select Until -> for the ban length and enter a date in YYYY-MM-DD format.
Ban one or more email addresses
To specify more than one email address enter each on a new line. To match partial addresses use * as the wildcard, e.g. *@hotmail.com, *@*.domain.tld, etc.
Un-ban or un-exclude emails
You can unban (or un-exclude) multiple email addresses in one go using the appropriate combination of mouse and keyboard for your computer and browser. Excluded email addresses are emphasised.
