Hello, my name is Rizzy!
Currently, im trying to remove an individual player’s stats or from a global leaderboard. I’ve tried tons of topics in devforum and still have the same issue.
Context: I banned a player in my game and want him off of the leaderboard he exploited on.
Any help would be amazing! 
You can buy a plugin named DataStore Editor, and learn how to use it or find the datastore that the global leaderboard saves the stats to and then do
game.DataStoreService:GetDataStore("DATASTOREHERE"):RemoveAsync(player.UserId)
Someone like this.
Would I place that inside of my leaderboard and if so, do I have to state the specific UserId? Or would that not matter.
I’m not exactly sure as I don’t know what the leaderboard script is.

--Run this in another script so it doesn't interfere with anything
local dss = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local ds = dss:GetOrderedDataStore("GemsData55")
ds:RemoveAsync("Username") -- The players username that you want their data removed
This worked perfectly. Thanks so much!
Could I also add multiple users by any chance?
--Run this in another script so it doesn't interfere with anything
local players = {
"Username1",
} -- All the players you want removed go in this table
local dss = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local ds = dss:GetOrderedDataStore("GemsData55")
for i = 1, #players do
ds:RemoveAsync(players[i])
end
It Worked. Appreciate the help!
Of course! Just message me if you ever need any more help!
