how to import the bans from my old forum to 2.8?

In the conversion I have lost all the data of banned users. I see no ban rules.
Have they been lost or merely stored elsewhere?
I have an extensive banlist that has been grown over 13 years with ip's / email adresses etc all of users/spammers etc. I rather not try to find that all back or reset that manually if possible?
is this a feature or a bug of the converter?

Conversion from what? You'll need to give a little bit more context here.
Im sorry -
my old forum- phpbb 2.x.
i have converted it to vanilla with the converter. In that conversion it seems it has not brought over the ban data.
so my question is wether this is a feature of the converter or if its there but in another place? There are no ban rules visible.
thank you once again! :)
There are bans rules in /dashboard/settings/bans but i don't know if porter import them...
No they havent been imported, the ruleslist is empty.
Why not try creating a rule, and then seeing where that gets stored in the DB?
Then you'd know the structure, and be able to compare it to your old DB table.
