Interesting outcome.
The wreckers must surely realise next time they try and access the CCUK server why they are banned. Does it state during connecting that they are banned, or is just 'not connnected'?

They probably thought they had got away with it because they evaded banning at the time, muhahahahahahaha!

I believe they just can't see the server in the list, and if they join it by name it says "Server cannot be found".

The server is visible (no need for checkig ID for a "ping" => extra traffic+slower response)

I think the message the "wrecker" get when trying to connect says kinda nothing. is it "Lost connection to server" ? can't remember

I vote that as server admin you can change the message they see when trying to connect then you could put "your no longer welcome here, have a nice day" if you wanted to be polite or you could put "FFS you moron, grow up! don't remain a wanker all your life... oh btw you've been banned for 999 days!" for a stronger message

connection refused would be better

Wow, these must've been some badass wreckers(I'll watch the replay when I get home)... glad they can't play in some servers now. The last (And one of my only) wreck I got into was only because I didn't have sufficiant space to clear the way during a Blue Flag, and was waiting till i was finished with the already entered chicane to end so that I could move. Too bad the guy wanted to use my bumper more than his brakes to get through it...



No hard feelings with the guy though.

Closing this thread because the problem has been solved peacefully with the persons in question.

And may I compliment you all on not letting this become a witchhunt.

And just a note about the talk about banning LFS accounts - noone's LFS account is banned. That can mean only two things:

1) we don't like banning
2) there are no seriously wrecking wreckers in our community

Be proud that it's the 2nd. Even though sometimes a thread like this pops up, it usually works out in the end and noone has to be banned.

Peace
