Ban List Update
« on: October 06, 2004, 07:34:57 AM »
Unfortunately, someone took it into their hands to stack up bans on certain players.

Although some people can get right up your nose, and you may want to ban them until next year, we have this procedure for a reason.

I have removed the bans on the 2 players that were stacked: mystic_godspire and rabid_22.

They will probably fid themselves able to log back in now with their ban counter set at the correct amount.

A cutscened player in the farm is causing you NO grief at all.

So:

DO NOT STACK BANS IN FUTURE.

[snapback]8272[/snapback]

Couple weeks back I stacked banned 2 people by accident (only one extra ban each I think). The problem I had was that after I banned the first guy, while Angelita was on her way to whack him I tried to ban the other guy and Angelita disappeared and reappeared next to me. Then I tried to ban the first guy again before the Angelita whacked the second guy. The problem is, I think they each got an extra ban because the bans still counted even though they weren't actually booted from the server!!!!

Is there any way to prevent this? Luckily it was only an extra hour, but people with more total bans would have harsher penalties from an accidental stack ban.

I was there when those two got their bans lol. The Rabid_22 deserved a stack ban. For the fact that he has caused nothing but trouble since he came to godspire. And Mystic_Godspire did deserve a ban or two but not such a heinous amount :). IMO.

Heh - we all make that mistake :D
What i mean is intentionally stacking 6+ bans on someone within the space of 30 seconds.
But yeah, its easy enough to fix, but im not making any changes until the new mod.

Did give someone a second ban (first was of 420) afther I talked 30 mins whit him. He did act like 'I get it.. I won't do it again', look what he said afther I disappeared. Now that's really asking for it, seeing his message before it he actualy asked for it himself. (the other 1 talking is a clanmate that was banned too) This isn't wrong to do, isn't it?

I usually ban people who are trying to encourage others to cheat/hack/random. Bad influences shouldn't be allowed to spread their vile ideas.

Plus, it's Brujah, and they are notorious trouble-causers, IMHO. I don't let repeat offenders slide too often.

I dont like them (as if my opinion mattered) but they have lasted a lot longer than any other newb clan has. Normaly they die off in 1 week, i think its been maybe 2 lol

 Is there any way a DM can tell me how may bans i have? Over the entire time iv been in GS i have only been banned twice. The last one didnt last long at all so im just wondering if the first one was deleted.

Or talon tells you, or you ask for a other ban (then the dm see the number) <--- I know you don't want it :D
Anyway, it's also perfect possible to play on gs whitout getting 1 single ban :P

Btw, I didn't want to hit on the brujah clan, it was just to fastest second ban I ever did/wanted on someone. Just replyed on:
