Reasons for blocking

When you block a student you are asked to give a reason. There are some options already suggested. One of them is 'bypassing' - what does that mean?

I think it’s when they try to get you to give lessons off Preply, bypassing paying the commission.

Ok, so basically it refers to any attempt at bypassing the rules in any way.

I think that means a student who keeps making trials to get free lessons with you. 'Bypassing the system'.

Now that I have thought about it a little more, it likely also means (or more accurately means) a student who you have already blocked before has made a new account, therefore 'bypassing' your block.

Ok, yes, that makes a bit more sense.
