[@Rhona W] The ban was lifted, or the ban did not go through?

The ban doesn't appear to have gone through. I used the GM tools to ban the users in question from the RP. It might be because they posted at the same time as I was working on it. 
They haven't posted since, so I'm not sure. 
I've also been made aware that users can still look at a topic and react to it while banned, so I don't know if that's why he and the other user I banned are still hanging around.
