Okay, one curious question for all of us InvisionFree users (specifically those of us who run forums under this host). In the case of banning users (permanently, or "perma-bans"), since we're not able to place in the formal reason for the error message, how do you all go about notifying the user that they've been permanently banned from your forums? As for me, I had to deal with this situation last year -- the procedure I did was this for the offending user:
All right; let's hear from you all now. Later for now! |

Well this is how I do it on my board Suspended members are allowed to view the board but only one forum and that is the Suspended forum. Which is basically an empty forum and they can use the PM system. 1. I suspend them and send a PM explaining why they were suspened and that their account will be banned in X hours or minutes. 2. I just go to the ACP and edit their profile and ban them and move them into the banned usergroup. I have two types of bannings on my board, 6 months to a year and forever ban. The 6 month to a year is where they are banned for up to a year and a forever ban is where they are banned forever. Hope this helps you out. |
