[Suggestion] Add a way to ban users from your game.

It would be useful to ban some users when hosting when kicking is not enough. There are some trolls that spam teams, enter just to insult players etc.

What do you mean by banning from a game? Do you mean in the middle of the game?

You can use wkKick38 module, apparently: https://worms2d.info/WkKick38

You can also ignore the chat of specific players while playing, by pressing Ctrl + F{team number}.

By banning I mean kicking in a way that doesn't let user return to the hosting game, not during but before starting.

I think there's no way to prevent specific players from joining a game.

At best, you can:

1. If you use HostingBuddy, just can type !close in the lobby.
2. If you are self-hosting, you can limit the number of players who can join your game by dragging the bottom edge of the players list up.

Concerning your suggestion specifically, it makes sense as a use case to implement. But the player who keeps joining your game may just change the nickname and join again, so in practice there would be little value behind this feature. Especially considering the semi-decentralized nature of WormNET and the game.
