3. Kick or ban user

If this user misbehaves, you may select the appropriate action.

Disconnect – A warning, this will remove the user from the chat, but allow them to reconnect in a few seconds.

Ban by IP – this will remove the user from the chat, and disallow access from their current IP address. If the user was logged in with a RumbleTalk account, that account will be removed from the chatroom.
