Easy Ban for Moderators...

The problem with this is, there is no universal way to 'ban' a member. IPB creates a Banned group by default, but there is nothing stopping you from deleting that group and making a totally different group that is your site's 'Banned' group. Until they make the Banned group act like the other standard groups (Root Admin, Member, Validating, and Guest) than this really can't be done.

Actually, on a fresh install they added a banned_group. However, they didn't make it so on upgrades that one was added. But, users can still add the banned_group manually if upgrading.

In the Warning System:

Enforce moderator preview of all new posts?
Disable this members posting ability
Suspend member's account

Between the three options there should be enough to hold any user off until an administrator is able to login to complete a ban.
