      • A user who is banned from a group cannot join it either directly or through an invitation
      • When a group member is banned from the group, they are automatically ejected
      • Group Owners cannot be banned
      • The ban list for a group can store a maximum of 500 entries

      • Viewing the group ban list
      • Adding or removing avatars from the group ban list
    • While the group ban project is in server RC, group bans will only be enforced by simulators which support the feature.

    • When a user is banned from a group, their viewer version does not matter; they will be unable to join the group while in a simulator that supports group ban.
