Ban evading code 2 - Prez - 08-31-2008
I'm tired of posting ban appeals actually and I bet Maka is tired of unbanning me..
My IP is very dynamic so it might be the reason...
Ideas?

this isn't a bug.. so no need to report it.

Personally I class an automatic banning system wrongly banning a player as a bug.
Re: Ban evading code 2 - [Griffin] - 08-31-2008
then the only fix would to take it out, which i don't think will happen.
Re: Ban evading code 2 - Jay - 08-31-2008
Well in my opinion it would be better not to have it then wrongfully ban people.

Jay, then you can have fun banning all the ban evaders cuz none of us wanna have to deal with it.
Re: Ban evading code 2 - Jay - 09-01-2008
I think that's your job though, I'm a developer, not an admin and hence being one have other things to do such as find a solution to this. If you class typing the word /ban every so often as something big to deal with, then you should try swapping with me for a few days. I certainly wouldn't mind taking a break and getting rewarded for once.

Let's stop this before it ends up becoming something much more than a "bug" report, eh guys? Developers have no easy job, but an Administrator's job is just as hard, but in a different way, Jay. You have to accept that we work just as hard, but on different levels. Accept the differences and move on, please. This anti-evasion feature can be a hassle, but we can unban and add names to lists where may be. It's truly not this big of a deal.

Well, it's maybe no big deal for you to unban me AFTER I posted a ban appeal again, but this happens to me probably 4 times a month.
Of course I can understand you don't want to ban every ban evader manually, maybe you could reconsider the system...
Why don't you ban the account of a player when you ban him and when he attempt to login such an account it bans him automatically?
Re: Ban evading code 2 - Jay - 09-01-2008
Account bans do happen as-well afaik. I agree though, if players are constantly getting banned all the time for no reason then they are eventually going to get bored and just, not come back.
The least thing LVP wants right now is less players. I still think the system should be removed. As I already stated, it isn't hard for admins to type /ban. Let's face it, not every person who get's banned ban evades! Probably not 1/4 of them do. Why not send an admin message of a possible ban evader at least instead of banning them?
