# Group blocklist

Block a person, account or domain from the group.

-   Create rules for user URLs, usernames, user IDs, email addresses or domains.
-   A domain rule applies to users from that domain.
-   The group blocklist is separate from each member's personal blocklist.

A group can block one account or a whole domain. These rules keep a promotional account from coming back.

A block rule can name a user URL, username, email, user ID or domain, with a note for other admins. The form wasn't submitted.

![Moderate dialog with four choices: Timeout user and Enable manual approval, both disabled, Ban from group, and No limitation, with a Next button.](https://welley.com/assets/media/group-member-moderation-demo-900.3233a218.webp)

Moderators can ban a member or clear earlier restrictions. Timeout and manual approval are shown but turned off here. Nothing was submitted.
