Stopping one registered user from posting comments

[zieg]

That's pretty much the gist of it, i don't want to stop all registered members from posting, just this one individual, banning him on the other part of the site (forum) the gallery is connected to does nothing, theres no option to ban anyone in the gallery so i guess the only way to stop him is to delete any comment he posts but is there a better way to stop it completely?

Thank you in advance.

Put him in a user group that isn't allowed to post comments.

Well when i click on groups in the gallery there is only guests, registered and admin, i don't see an add button to make a new group and even if there was i don't see an option to change users groups manuelly, on the actual site the user's account isn't even activated and the gallery sets guests to not post so i guess change him to guest on the site but would it affect the gallery?

Even banned users could upload and comment and i don't see any option to stop these members in the gallery since its kind of disconnected from the the main site so if i click on the users tab i'll send me to the memberlist on the forum, unless there is a banning plugin for the gallery im stuck. Im not the head admin, just the gallery admin, i stopped guests from even going in there like uploading etc until they register and sure it was strict but there was too many users uploading offensive stuff that there was really no other way but then the head admin unlocked it for them because we'll lose members if we did but i doubt you want to hear me rant.

You have to use post based groups while bridging Coppermine with your forum. In your forum you can decide which group(s) users belong to, Coppermine drops that functionality when bridged.
