something happend back during an upgrade and we lost alot of formatting and such, there was a period when there was no journals available. the journal community was on hold for a bit. there was an attempt at using the forum to create threads and people commenting via the threaded view. It was very confusing to many and just not easy at all.
suffice to say when the journals returned there was much rejoicing and happiness across the land.
Blocking users from threads is problematic, for forums it's done at usergroup level, doing it at member level is problematic since you'd have to be a administrator to do so. Even then it's not as simple as adding a name but actually going into the forum permissions and giving explicit rights to that member.
I suggest taking an opportunity to look at phpbb or vbulletin. Both have demos you can see the backend and tinker with. It
