Forum Members are the same WordPress users. wpForo is fully integrated with WordPress and uses the same user resources, registration and authorization system. In addition to this wpForo adds new user fields and brings a rich user profile system. Like WordPress Dashboard > User admin page wpForo also has a Member management table in Dashboard > Forums > Members admin page to control forum specific user data.
Here you can search members, filter using “Usergroup” and “User Status” dropdowns. Aslo you can manage members using individual action links or bulk actions tool.

This action only restricts user access, it leaves content in place, preserves discussions (topics and posts). If a banned user is logged in, he/she will not be able to view/edit/add any content on your forum. This user only see a message like this “You have been banned. Please contact to forum administrators for more information.“. You can change this message in Dashboard > Forum > Phrases admin page.
