How to ban a person from VK forever quickly and easily

Why do you need to ban

Before banning a person from VK, let’s look at the reasons and situations that contribute to this. Any user enjoys visiting their page to chat with friends, listen to music, or scroll through interesting news. But some people spoil the mood by sending negative messages and leaving nasty comments.

A ban will be required in the following cases:

promotional offers and other spam are sent;
manifestation of aggression when the user is annoying with his offensive messages and comments;
an annoying fan, without whose comments and likes not a single publication is complete, and his personal account is filled with messages from him;
the desire to hide your personal life from any person who may be unpleasant to you.

There are two types of blocking a person on VK: blacklist and permanent ban. For example, if you want to protect yourself from an unwanted user, you can add him to the blacklist. And if a person violates the rules, then a complaint against him to the administration of the social network is necessary. Below we will look at ways to ban a person on VKontakte.

Why can a community be banned?

A community, just like a personal account, can be banned temporarily or permanently. There is no clear distinction between these types of bans. It all depends on the nature of the offense and aggravating or mitigating circumstances.

The reasons for blocking may be the following:

A sharp change in the topic and nature of published content. There are situations when the management of a public site changes the topic of the community and the nature of the published content. The fact is that existing subscribers initially subscribed to content of a certain nature and its constant updating. A sharp change in topic implies deception of these subscribers, since in the future content will be published that they did not subscribe to. Most often, this results in a temporary ban, but if the administration has suspicions about the sale of the community, then it can be blocked forever.
Violation of the rights of third parties. For example, you published material without the consent of the copyright holder of this material. If there are such complaints, the community may be temporarily blocked.
The group was included in the Roskomnadzor register. This includes communities in which prohibited goods are published or advertised: anabolic steroids and other drugs with similar effects, weapons and gambling (including bookmakers). In this case, the ban is given forever.
Cheat subscribers. If you misuse or abuse services and programs for automatically increasing subscribers, you can easily arouse suspicion and get a permanent ban. This also includes boosting any other activity (likes, reposts, views, comments, etc.).
Distribution or advertising of services that allow you to artificially increase activity counters (likes, subscribers, reposts, comments, views, etc.).
Personal insult. If there are complaints from users, the community is temporarily blocked.
Spam on behalf of the community or using spam to advertise your public is also prohibited by the site rules. Most often, the public is temporarily frozen for spam, but if you abuse or regularly violate the rules of the site, you can get banned without the possibility of further recovery.
Violation of other site rules and provisions of the legislation of the Russian Federation.

How to restrict access to your page

If you want the user to be unable to access data on your page, then proceed as follows:

Remove the person from your friends list if he is there.
Make your profile private.
Limit your ability to comment or post messages.

All these actions are performed in the profile security settings. Here you can also restrict access to your friends list, saved photos, wall posts, and audio recordings.

You can also ban a person on VK through a blacklist. Users who are here will not be able to see information on your page and write private messages. However, they will not immediately notice that they are in a bathhouse.

To add an enemy to an emergency, follow the instructions:

Click on the ava icon, which is located at the top right, and select “Settings”.
In the panel, click on the “Black List” section.
To ban a page on VK, select the “Add to blacklist” button and find the unwanted user in the list that appears.
If a person is not among your friends or subscribers, you can find him by inserting a link to his profile.

After that, he won't bother you anymore. To return it from the black list, just go to the list and click on the delete button next to the nickname.

How to block a spammer on VK?

Only the administration of the social network has the right to regulate the duration of the ban. Specially trained people - moderators - review incoming requests for blocking and decide whether measures need to be taken or not. If so, which ones?

But first they must receive an application. How to send it?

Go to the page of the user who violates the rules of use of the social network.
Directly below the avatar there is a button with the image of three dots. Click it.
Select “Block” from the drop-down menu

Three simple steps will forever get rid of communication with a dishonest person. He will lose access to your page and updates, the ability to send messages and invite you to public pages. You will be able to visit someone else's page if the user does not block you in retaliation.

How to ban someone forever

If a person hurts your feelings and the views of other users on VK, then he can be banned forever. The reasons for blocking are indicated on the page with the rules of the social network. He will be blocked if he violates the following:

distributes pornographic materials;
sends spam and other annoying advertising;
behaves offensively online;
insulting the feelings of believers or obscene communication.

To ban a page on VK, you need to complain about it to the support service. To do this, do the following:

Go to the page of the person you want to ban.
Click on the button with three dots, which is located under his avatar.
Click on the “Report Page” button.
A window will appear in which you need to select the reason for blocking and write a cover letter with details.
Click on the "Submit" button.

Within 24 hours, the administration will consider the complaint and take the necessary measures. Banning another person’s VKontakte page is not very easy. Therefore, if you decide to take revenge, then it may not be blocked. The support service carefully checks all applications, and if the opposite is true, then his profile will be banned. The first ban lasts for 24 hours. If complaints have been made more than four times, then the page can be deleted forever.

Mass complaint

Sometimes a single complaint to VK does not bring the expected result. But there are many groups on the social network that are designed for users to provide services to each other. For example, you can ask participants to massively report a person, and then he will definitely get a ban.

To find such a community, just enter the words “Ban” or “Block” in the search. Find a suitable group and join it. Post a link to his profile on the wall. Participants will be able to go to its page and submit a complaint.

Now you know how to ban a person from VK temporarily or forever. If he is annoying with messages and comments, then it is better to blacklist him. Then he will not be able to contact you and see the information on the page. If a user causes harm to others, the social network allows you to file a complaint against him. For mass requests, VKontakte even has special groups built on the principle of mutual assistance.

Why can a profile be blocked?

I have always divided the reasons for blocking into two groups: more serious violations and more harmless ones. In the first case, the ban comes for distributing prohibited materials. Moreover, in some cases, not only the rules and policies of the VKontakte website are violated, but also the legislation of the Russian Federation. These reasons include:

Placing posts with prohibited materials.
Calls for violence, aggression, racism, nationalism, extremism, terrorism.
Insults of various types (personal, religious, etc.).
Intentional placement of links to virus sites or programs.

Almost always the ban is given forever. The page cannot be restored. But there are also situations when the blocking is given for a while. This depends on mitigating circumstances, the nature of the offense and other factors. The site administration is not stupid, and knows how to distinguish between situations when the rules were violated consciously and unconsciously.

The second type of violations are more harmless. Most often they are associated with promotion and promotion, namely:

Using services that artificially inflate activity counters. In other words, programs and sites with which you can increase likes, subscribers, reposts, comments and other activity.
Placing posts on your wall containing advertising or other information about such services.
Suspicious user activity. For example, you use a service for mutual exchange of activity (where, for a reward, you complete tasks for other users, and they complete yours). If, for example, you were not previously an active user, and then suddenly you actively started liking, subscribing, reposting posts, etc., then for the administration this behavior will be suspicious and they will begin to monitor you more closely.
Spam and sending various information. An account can be frozen both for spam in private messages to other users, and on their walls, community walls, in comments, etc. (for detailed information on how to find a way out if messages are blocked, read the material at the link).
The presence of a certain number of complaints from other VK users. The exact number of complaints followed by blocking is not made public. According to various sources, there should be at least 5 of them. But it all depends on the nature of the violation.
Mass mailing of invitations to friends. Rarely, but this happens, despite the presence of a daily limit on outgoing friend requests. The site administration is not stupid and understands perfectly well when they recruit friends for the sake of PR for their product/service/brand.

Bottom line

Today, when VKontakte is even more actively used for commercial purposes, getting a personal profile or community blocked has become much easier. Be careful and careful in your work. Use each promotion method wisely and try not to violate the rules of VK.

Spam trends in 2021

At all times, the main goal of spamming is to make a profit. Namely, to notify as many people as possible about the product and interest them in the offer so that they place an order. The less you spend on organizing spam mailings and the more leads (orders) you receive, the better. There are certain trends in 2021:

Natural dialogues. Increasingly, in the comments to community posts you can see not an advertisement for a product, but an interesting and intriguing message or an entire dialogue. Naturalness is the main trend: it works better than “frontal sales”, because such dialogues practically do not get banned.

More details

Selection of target audience. Previously, spam was “carpet bombing” - advertising messages were sent to everyone indiscriminately. This is not how they operate now - products or services are offered only to the target audience: people who may be potentially interested in them. This allows you to increase conversion: with this approach we get more leads than if we sent messages to everyone.

What is BAN?

BAN (Ban) is to impose a ban, block, outlaw. If we apply the meaning of the word to the global network, then this is one of the ways to control the behavior of users on the Internet. To ban means to prohibit or restrict a user from any actions on a specific website, service, or social network. Naturally, sanctions are imposed for violations of established rules and resource requirements.

The owner of the resource or the administrators and moderators appointed by him can limit the user’s actions. The ban is valid only on the service, website or social network account on which it was issued. For example, if a VK page was banned, this does not mean that personal accounts on Instagram, FB, WhatsApp and Twitter channels will also be banned.

Types of prohibitions

Ban is divided into temporary and permanent. Let's look at the features of each type of blocking:

Temporary ban. The blocking periods on each resource are different, but on average vary from 12 hours to 7-8 weeks. Usually a temporary “bath” serves as a kind of warning to the user that this should not be done. In this case, the reason for the sanctions must be indicated so that the user can analyze his actions and not break the rules in the future. For repeated violations, the blocking time increases. Once a certain number of temporary bans are reached, a permanent ban may be issued.
Eternal ban. The user is blocked forever. In 90% of cases, the block is issued automatically (by a robot) of the system in response to a serious violation of the rules. For example, on social networks and various services they ban you for having a multi-account. That is, the user opened more pages than established by the rules. Each resource has its own list of actions subject to permanent blocking. You can view it upon registration.

In games and on forums, the following type of ban is also encountered - mute - blocking chat communication in writing or by voice through a headset. On resources such as Russian Wikipedia and STTS, offending users are given warnings in the form of cards. If the user collects a certain number of such “mustard plasters”, then he is automatically blocked by the system.

An IP ban is the blocking of a unique network address that a person uses to access a website, service, or account. We have learned to bypass this ban quite simply through a proxy server or dynamic IP.
