    What is the significance of the 'jail bars' image super imposed onto a user's profile picture?

    Is it a result of moderator action?

    I had guessed it meant a forum ban however the posters still seem able to post on the forum I am viewing.

    It's caused by having three active warnings. Despite the icon's suggestions, they're not banned from the site or forum, but they're blocked from starting new threads. Hence we've had to add a small extra bit to DRP to start a thread on behalf of someone in that state.

    These bars are not visible on the desktop site.
