Maybe I’m missing something here, but why would one ping someone who has been banned from the website?
It seems it would serve little purpose, no?

fatima is a very sweet person.

Maybe she doesn’t know they were banned.

I have read that... While there are occasions when the person’s contributions to the site are not wanted and the account is deleted, in many other cases the point is simply to stop further posting and in that case, I’ve read the person can still get their pings.
