Great Plugin

Reduces the email traffic from my daily login as administrator which was triggering an award email and points every time I logged into the website. Now it is much easier to evaluate user awards. Just install the plugin and go to gamipress settings, add-ons tab and block users is at the top. Add/Select Administrator to Blocked Roles. Works great so far.

Perfect

Just what I needed. Some times you don’t need some roles/users to be considered. This plugin does exactly that. thank you.
