  <p>This is on a wordpress site that uses the Members Sync to automatically assign users to roles.  I thought about creating using a &quot;banned&quot; role but they would also be in an Alumni group automatically which I suspect would trump this if trying to use the ACL.</p>

Comments.Text: wild thought would be to use something like civi rules, put your banned person in a group, and then via civirules see if you can set up so that 'if person is in group x' and 'if person gets membership' then 'set membership to cancelled'. totally untested idea.

  Is it possible to flag a contact who has been banned from renewing their membership?
  
  This is on a wordpress site that uses the Members Sync to automatically assign users to roles. I thought about creating using a "banned" role but they would also be in an Alumni group automatically which I suspect would trump this if trying to use the ACL.
