BuddyPress.org

A common gripe I have with a lot of group / forum platforms etc is the stark language used in managing members. Especially terms like “ban” – let alone “kick & ban” as buddypress appears to have. I appreciate the usefulness of that lingo if one is managing a large public network with a gazillion members, including the inevitable proportion of the human population who may be a tomato short of a whole salad. But if, like me, you’re managing a small task group who all get along very nicely – then it’s far from helpful!! I’ve just had a person very politely withdraw from a group for a good personal reason – and my only option for deleting them from group membership is to “ban” them. Can I please simply delete / remove them, so their name doesn’t continue to appear to admins in the group members list as “banned”.
