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 users by username

You can ban multiple users in one go by entering each name on a new line. Use the Find a member facility to look up and add one or more users automatically.
