I've just updated the product. There is now an option to allow users to be banned from an entire forum using a new "Ban From Forum" option on the forum's Administrative menu. This is only available to users who have moderator rights over the forum.

There is now an option to unban from the Moderation Tools menu. This will unban users of the selected posts.

There is also a user groups setting which will allow non-moderators to access this product from a new menu item on the "Thread Tools" menu, plus it will restrict who can use the creation time bans - if enabled.

I didn't get time to look at the PM option.
