I delete a ton of spambot posts every day, and it seems no one else is minding the store and the process to report the vermin for banning is kind of cumbersome. What I'm requesting publicly is to be given the ability to ban in order to clean up bots and the spam posts in the Wasteland.

I seem to ban 1-2 bots a month myself, but I'm sure KoC would trust you. Let me ask him right now

There's a link called "Go To Administration Panel" at the bottom of each page. The chunk at the bottom of the links on the left on the new page is the ban control. Just drop the name in the name field and the IP in the IP address field and save.

Can someone explain to me why Nicolai is on the banned list?

No, the number of spam bots posting is already greater than the number of active members.
