So did anyone actually bother looking at the logs?
most notably this line:
L 03/19/2006 - 23:13:56: "{NQA:S} Malfurion *T*<30><STEAM_0:0:2237506><CT>" disconnected
(reason "{NQA:S} Malfurion *T* timed out")
then there's this:
L 03/19/2006 - 23:14:38: "{NQA:S} Malfurion *T*<50><STEAM_ID_PENDING><>" connected,
address "222.153.231.100:10546"
L 03/19/2006 - 23:14:40: "{NQA:S} Malfurion *T*<50><STEAM_0:0:2237506><>" disconnected
(reason "STEAM UserID STEAM_0:0:2237506 is banned")
which tells me hlstatsx is is set to ban on retry for 5 minutes (he
timed out, and tried to rejoin in less then a minute). Basically,
hlstatsx bans everyone that disconnects for 5 minutes (supposed to be
for only 5 minutes) to keep them from disconnecting, then rejoining to
get on the "winning" team (keeps the stat whores at bay).
Mr Williams, please take a look at your hlstats.conf file, so a search
for "AutoBanRetry" and disable it by setting the variable to "0"
And how is "Hell Phoenix" a womans name?
Please stop blaming VAC for your misconfiguration. With hlstatsx, you
*really* need to pay attention to what you configure in the hsltats.conf
file - and if you don't understand a variable, either get on the
hlstatsx forums, or for an even quicker response, hit the hlstatsx IRC
channel where you can usually chat with the developer directly.

so you were swearing at VAC and all the staff at Valve (with the exception
of Alfred) for something that Valve is totally unresponsible for cause your
plugins function correctly as they were written to do, and you simply had
not properly configured them? least you could do is apologize to Valve for
the stuff u called em, instead of making lame excuses about your sleeping
patterns. sheesh.
If mani is anything like beetlemod there's several reasons it can ban
people, not just the built in 'anti-cheat'. Beetle can be set to kick or ban
for too many tk's, can be set to ban for too many times being kicked. Peeps
can be auto-kicked if afk too many rounds, and if ban-for-x-kicks is set,
they can get banned for being afk-kicked too many times. Clearly you do not
have it configured properly. As for hlstatsx showing the ban as a VAC ban,
that is incorrect. Why does it do that? Well you'd have to go ask the peeps
who wrote that addon. The server logs do not lie, and do not show a VAC ban.
Phoenix's statements might seem harsh, but they are correct. If your first
reaction is to start swearing at him, making fun of his name etc. you
certainly belong on the Steam forums along with the rest of the twits there,
not here spamming everyone's mailboxes with your rubbish.

hey this noob had been up for 24 hours and when i wrote that i was
passing out. I might not be good at this kinda stuff but hey i do it for
fun. Mebbe you might wanna try the same kind of dedication i put in when
you have a problem. All i wanna do is learn and get better and working
with srcds. I am shocked that some of the ppl in this list can be so
arrogant and selfish. I'm not 15 and i've been on this list nearly a
year. oh and i did fix it after 26 hours. i then slept for 3 and
starting working on learning some more commands. i've now been up for 13
hours and i'm passing out again.
go fuck yourself pheonix. oh btw why do you have a girls name anyway?????
