Today's topic is ' bout ban, yes you heard it right ban.
.
.

Aight. Its more of a cringe thingy then punishment.
.
.
.
So I have come up with the idea of Shadow Ban which can be added to the current site updated.
.
.
.

So what is it?
I know now some of you might wonder what it is. So basically it means Shadow banning, also called stealth banning, is blocking or partially blocking a user or their content from an online community so that it will not be readily apparent to the user that they have been banned.

.
.
.

So what are its benifits from user's point of view?
In traditional ban system typically we can't view anything from jet stream to notification but here the user won't feel that he has been banned and they user can access this site as usual.

.
.
.

So what are the benifits of it from mod's point of view?
Firstly even if user try to post some public build or some random forums it won't.
Secondly if the user tries to comment or upvote it won't appear and the upvotes would not be counted and no notification will be send to the creator of the build and even if someone tries to find the banned user they won't be able to find it except for their comment prior to their ban.

.
.
.
As a result mods will continue to do their jobs and a ban user will not be hampered from using this site while still being banned.

I hope that this feature will be added in the near future.

    @YoDudeChase but if they get notification about they are banned for a specific time limit.

    Its been a problem of people getting banned and not getting a reason, but just not even letting them know they're banned and everything they do will not affect anyone or thing, say perhaps during the 'ban' they post a plane they worked on for like 5 weeks, and then not a single person downloads or upvotes it, that would suck wouldn't it? Or they post a helpful comment yet everyone ignores it and continues to complain about a problem, these are only a few possible issues.
