Now this a suggestion Mods should be able to do. I think that we should have the ability to ban someone from posting in a certain section fro a period of time so that way instead of getting banned from the whole forum they just get banned from the section. I think this will help out because there are certain people who are good in most sections but they mess around in a certain one. That way they can't cause trouble for a few days and learn they're lesson. But mods should only be able to do this for just causes not just because they don't like somebody. What do you guys think?

Sounds good to me, but the problem is in execution of it. WOuld yuo have to make like 20 (exaggerated number) different member groups to have certain people who can't even enter part of the forum?

When i do a ban i can select to have it so they just cannot post but its forum wide, not just a section

But isn't htere a way to make user groups so that only certain users can enter a certain section? I remmeber when I first visited here (I hadn't signed up yet) I couldn't veiw the forum at all, would it be the same concept?

Wouldn't that be a bit complecated? Put everyone in a user group but that one person out?

yeah but thats a pain in the butt and you would have to create a million groups where each one denioed access to one section and then move people to that group and then goto every section and check to not allow that group. WAYY to much work

Oh. I didn't think of it like that. I don't know how to ban someone but is there anyway the mods could have like the same operation you do for a ban but just for their section. Also I just realized something. I think you may have meant the whole section Like the group of section topics belonging to that section. I meant that we could just ban them from one topic section like the BakuDome or General Discussion.

I realize that but thats the only thing I can think of... There has to be some way to deny access though.
