- Remove user & report. This will:
- Delete the reported user from the instance.
- Remove the abuse report from the list.
- Block user.
- Remove report. This will:
- Remove the abuse report from the list.
- Remove access restrictions for the reported user.
The following is an example of the Abuse Reports page:
Blocking users
A blocked user cannot log in or access any repositories, but all of their data remains.
Blocking a user:
- Leaves them in the abuse report list.
- Changes the Block user button to a disabled Already blocked button.
The user will be notified with the following message:
Your account has been blocked. If you believe this is in error, contact a staff member.
After blocking, you can still either:
- Remove the user and report if necessary.
- Remove the report.
The following is an example of a blocked user listed on the Abuse Reports page:
NOTE: Note: Users can be blocked and unblocked using the GitLab API.
