Is there a way to ban a non-commenter who keeps abusing the report system? (self.moderators)

As far as I’m aware, mods can only access banning functionality on user comments.

If someone in a community keeps pestering mods with BS reports, but that user has not posted a comment in the community, is there a way to ban that person?

I can’t seem to find anything in the UI to handle this use case.

Not directly but since it's federated information it would be trivial to extract or view such as running a 1 user instance and viewing the sql database, and theres likely tools now to automate that
