Topic: How to ban a user?

I have found some are abusing my site by posting spam/scams. Is there a way to ban a particular user by ip or any other way?

Thanks in advance.

I am still looking for this feature. You've to do manual IP blocking that's what i guess.

Hi,
Is this applicable to 1.9 as well?

this is for 1.8, if you are using it for v1.9.1 you will have to do some conversion

1. I'm not using 1.8, neither 1.9, i'm not sure but i think it is 1.7. smile
2. Why isn't there any notice that this "hack" is for 1.9?
3. Which conversion should i do?
