As far as I’m aware, mods can only access banning functionality on user comments.

If someone in a community keeps pestering mods with BS reports, but that user has not posted a comment in the community, is there a way to ban that person?

I can’t seem to find anything in the UI to handle this use case.

    Some people put in the legwork.

    There is a very active account that mods a couple big communities. I saw them acting like a jackass and down voted like 4-5 of their comments in a chain, got a DM “informing” me that he could see votes…

    They’re not an admin, just a mod and on a normal instance.

    I legitimately don’t know why admins are cool with him, but they are. So I just blocked him.
