Banned IP, but still access to admin CP

It should be that members who get banned via the IP ban feature, shouldn't be able to access the admin cp. I just tested it out, and banned myself via IP, but I was still able to access the admin cp. I'm saying this because on my old forum, some banned members were IP banned were still able to access the admin cp. Now I know they could easily access via a proxy, but a lot of proxies do not enable javascript so if they ever did hack into the admin cp they wouldn't be able to do anything. This would help a lot, because on my new forum I've banned quite a few members who know what they're doing. I'm afraid that even though I've IP banned them they can still access the Admin CP. Also, even though there is an option in Cpanel to IP ban via that, some people do not use Cpanel so they cannot do anything from there.

If you IP ban someone wouldn't you also want them not an Administrator of your forum any longer?
Or ban their account first? -

I'm not saying that. I'm saying even if they are not an administrator anymore, they can still get to the admin directory. It should be when you IP ban somebody from the Mybb ACP, they shouldn't have access to anything anymore, including the ACP directory.
