You must be joking. When I ban people it is for good. I do not want them coming back to my server or any server I run in the future. I would never unban someone unless it was a mistake. HL Servers are for following the rules. If you do not want to play by my rules, go to another server. There needs to be a punishment associated with being a jerk, if people know that they can come back in a week or two if they abuse the server, they will.
Ban all the jerks and your players will love you. There are hundreds of them. > From: "sebastian nielsen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: [hlds] Number of allowed bans too small? > Date: Mon, 18 Oct 2004 08:39:08 +0000 > Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Bans is data too.
