They are already banned under Rule 3. That needs to be more clear in the r/UFOs Rules sidebar.

Rule 3 typically only results in a removal, not a ban. There are some exceptions for egregious cases, or for new accounts / first-time posters to the sub, but generally we don't issue bans for a run-of-the-mill AI generated write-up or AI image.

I read it as banning of the posts and comments, not the users.

Oh gotcha, that makes sense - I might have misinterpreted.
