April Fools - Ban User

A slight modification of an in house experiment described here.

Users are prompted with the option to ban any user they choose for a period within 3-30 days. Upon submitting, there is a half second pause, then the username switches with their own name followed with another half second pause, before the script finally submits. Don't worry -- the user input here is completely ignored.

The entered username is completely ignored, and the user submitting the form is banned for the period they entered.

Refer to attached screenshots for more info.

It's up to you to link to this file, and you can also view ban.php?do=view for a list of banned users.


... you may want to unban some of these users the next day. No pressure though.

It worked great for me, even got one of my admins and a supermod as well. Over 80 people did it.

The mod worked well, my members didn't... The first couple figured something was up so they entered their own name, or other stuff like "April Fools" and got banned... then I got the first one to get banned to try to convince a few others to "get revenge" for him, so that got a few. But overall, most users were upset at the idea they might get banned for no reason and started getting upset.

People take the internet WAAAAY to seriously. Anyways, thanks for a great mod and I can't wait to see what you think of next year.

I think it really depends on how you present it. I made a post, stickied it, and added BAN THIS USER under everyone's post counts.

Here's my thread with all the replies: http://www.x-h2o.com/showthread.php?t=53167

Here's my initial post (I have the [you] mod installed also so that converts to their username):

So, a good portion of members including [you] have been given user banning rights. Hopefully they will use it properly and not go overboard, but we'll see. If it doesn't work out, we'll change back and find some new moderators.

www.x-h2o.com/ban.php should be accessible to you if you have this permission and there is a link under each person's avatar.
