Demoner June 12, 2006 Author Share Demoner Member June 12, 2006 All the information I have is that I was playing about 2 or 3pm cst time. Then the server got restarted and I played like 2 or 3 more rounds then I got off and went to scopeless. I try coming back shortly after to find my steam id banned. Lunk was the admin on when the server was restarted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shazz June 12, 2006 Share Shazz Member June 12, 2006 Demoner is a great player. He is a reg. that has followed the rules on Scopeless. Would help if the banning admin posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatty June 12, 2006 Share Fatty GC Founder June 12, 2006 Generally if someone bans a long-time reg they post about it in the admin area in GC....as a courtesy head's up...and I've seen Lunk do this. Lifting with the assumption that there was an error. Leaving topic open so perhaps mrX can find the details for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunk June 12, 2006 Share Lunk Member June 12, 2006 Wasn't me. When I restarted the server I left for a bit. I also know that Demoner is a reg and have had no issues with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatty June 14, 2006 Share Fatty GC Founder June 14, 2006 So you logged in with a bad name and didn't know why you were banned? Should we reban until we get an explanation for that one? I'm curious about the name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mookie June 14, 2006 Share mookie GC Alumni June 14, 2006 Out of curiosity, does "bad name" mean "expletive-deleted" bad, or "VALVe doesn't feel like trapping an error therefore the name '0' is right out" bad? If this is out of line, just delete it and I'll take the hint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayfarer June 14, 2006 Share wayfarer Member June 14, 2006 Agreed, where's this "bad name" that the console speaks of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrX June 14, 2006 Share mrX GC Alumni June 14, 2006 This is actually kinda funny. Here's what happened, I believe, and the reason for the "bad name". Some nub admin set the server up to autoban anyone with the name "O". In autokickname.txt I found: "0" b 0 Meaning the server is set to auto ban anyone with that specific name. Thankfully whoever did this didn't do a pname, or half the people joining coulda been banned. Now who wants to step up and admit to this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demoner June 14, 2006 Author Share Demoner Member June 14, 2006 Well this explains alot to me now. I was having an off day so I changed my name to "0" thinking it would suit me since I could hardly do anything. Technically I banned myself!

Fatty June 15, 2006 Share Fatty GC Founder June 15, 2006 Ahhhh, I assumed that mrX edited the bad name out in his post. Strange. One of our most interesting bans yet. Get a good narrator, some spooky music and a collection of these and we could do an hour tv show on these....Mysterious Bans Revealed...or something... I think it turned out how all of us wanted to believe it would. Go in peace, Demoner, and try not to ban yourself in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
