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

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.

Imo that's malicious.

They are using their position to influence the trajectory and visibility of posts. The motivation doesn't matter
