 * Hi there,
 * I’ve been using wpForo for a replacement of an old standalone forum system.
    
   However, I have two situations that I couldn’t find any solution yet.
 * 1) Is there any option that would allow regular users to block other users?
 * As in: userA blocks userB, then userA won’t see any topics/replies from userB
   and wouldn’t receive direct messages from userB either.
 * 2) Moderators being able to ban/delete/disable a user from wpForo frontend instead
   of /wp-admin.
 * This is because I don’t want moderators being WordPress admins but they should
   be able to delete/disable/ban an abusing member from the user profile/account
   menu.
 * Ideally, because of how WordPress works, deleting a user would only allow the
   person to recreate an account using the same e-mail address, so disable/ban would
   be a permanent solution.
 * Is there such functionality in wpForo?
