Concise description:- Add forum banned users to a Banned group
Specifics/Details:- Instead of adding users to the default guests group, add them to a Banned group that has Never permissions set to prevent posting, and sending of PM's, but allows reading of PM's
How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:- Forum Banned Members will show up on the online list and will be able to read PM's sent to them.

I'm confident that when a user gets banned, it's preprogrammed in the PHP software to execute a certain way. I doubt lackattack would want to go through all the trouble to modify that. If being banned is a bummer - just behave? I really don't know what else there is to this.

I'm confident that ConquerClub uses the phpBB software and I have helped with its support for about three years, this is very possible, and would only take a few clicks to implement.

I understand where you're coming from, but for the amount of people it actually affects, you have to ask if its even worth it, regardless of how long it takes.
