To ban a member accurately : 1) IP ban are useless and dangerous Useless because the user who is banned this way may have a dynamic IP address (IP that changes at each connection) and then, he may come back after a simple IP ban. More, banned IP are erased after one month. Dangerous because an IP can be given to several members (if they have a dynamic IP or if they are on a school/office network or on a proxy like proxy-aol.com ). By banning a person, you may ban two or more, even the admin. 2) Use the ban of the profile in the user management to ban the profile of the member. This only fonction allows you to ban a member properly by blocking the access to the account on the forum 3) Don't delete the banned accounts It amounts to erase the data you have about the banned member. So, he can come back with the same e-mail address and the same username 4) In case of a banned member who comes back with several e-mail addresses : Collect 5 whole profiles (usernames, e-mail addresses, IP's) and PM a moderator in this forum, so that he/she will transmit the infos to an admin who will set about a more severe ban Here are the only procedures to respect.

The more the member is banned, the less he will have possibilities to come back
