If you deleted the banned.cfg as you said, how can you blame spaces? I think you insulted this list more then any here has insulted you.

The reason it was behaving so strangely and nobody(!) could figure it out was that I had a space behind several Steam ID's in the banned.cfg. This happened when copying some ID's from my webpage and opening the cfg file in Wordpad instead of Notes. Thanks for all the help and insults. //DiS|Fox Homepage: http://www.sweDiS.se/ Server: http://dis1.hopto.org:27015 >From: "Mikee" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Is it possible that he is running some metamod application like Admin >Mod/AMX Mod that is keeping his bans in their own folder location, in >addition to the banned.cfg?
