Ok, this is something I have been wanting for awhile. If moderators are allowed to ban members, I believe they should be able to un-ban them as well.

I know its not "essential" but I think it would be nice feature to have just incase a situation would arise where it would be needed.

Basically, just add an option for "Un-Ban This Member" in the "Administrate This User" part of member's profiles available to Mods.

I think this would be a good feature, I've always found it weird that a moderator can ban someone but not unban them.

Thanks LH!

Anyone else want to share their feelings on this?

:S You can already do this. In phpbb3 that is.

No, not on any Forumotion based forums

Alright, I just ran into a situation where I really needed this feature.

Today I banned a member, who moments later we discovered did not deserve a ban.

No Admin was online, and he the member has to wait to get back onto the site.

Please vote yes for this. We really need it.

Come'on guys! I need votes!

Yes

This would be helpful

Voted yes !

Sure vote yes!

i agree, this option can be given to a super moderator
so yes.

Thanks for the votes everyone!

Please keep them coming!

voted YES! That's a good idea that could be needed in some occasions!

I did find it annoying that I had to wait for an admin to log in to unban someone. Voted yes.

Thanks guys

20 votes for this so far!!!

I vote YES would be some thing that all staff would like.

maybe it could be set for just some staff thou or you (the admin can pick what staff get the right ) that way you know who is unbanning them and it will come up in the admin page.

but would like this on my site

Ultimately, I would hope that Forumotion allows us to customize permissions/powers for staff. AKA: Limit powers to certain Administrators, and disallow certain staff (such as Packagers, Reviewers, etc.) from having ban permissions even though they may have moderator permissions in a certain forum.

Although that is probably some ways away at the moment...

Right now, I would just like to see an "un-ban" button in members' profiles that is visible to everyone with moderator powers. That would satisfy me at least for now...

Come on guys, need a quite a few more votes before Forumotion will consider this!

That'd be useful on the fm forums. Voted YES.

Very useful, voted yes

Voted yes.

Voted yes, very useful.

I vote as well, but its contingent on admins having the option to disable this as well.
