# Blacklisting Users

RaidSharksBot is capable to Blacklist users from being shown on the leaderboard.\
Please note, that it will just hide their information from the leaderboard. Those users can still participate in raids, help to meet a current target and sum up points in the database.\ <mark style="color:orange;">However, they are not able to win any competition or get an airdrop.</mark>

That said, you can anytime de-blacklist a user and he will pop up within the leaderboard again.

The Blacklist function includes a Username search to speed up search in big groups.

{% hint style="info" %}
All data is saved in the database. Blacklisting a user does not delete any points. It just hides that certain user within leaderboard and makes him unable to win a competition or get an airdrop.
{% endhint %}
