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.

I recommend an announcement of some sort... but email works I suppose.

Be creative.

A suggestion, I did on my site after changing the code a little.
Change the days to hours.
Tinker the code to progressively increase ban period based on the period selected (Although best to keep in hours rather than days, days is too much

Great idea btw

Maybe I didn't like my users. But yeah, modify to suit your needs. This was very last minute!
