Point is, you can't depend on banning by name. The best way to do this for now is to do it by steam_id.
If the plans are still as they were in December of last year, the older games will be ported to the orange box engine. Once they do, I believe the names will be locked down like they are in TF2. Until then, you'll have to live with the hassle. IIRC, isn't there a plugin that will kick for more than X number of name changes?

But when you're trying to spec someone in game and catch a cheater and their name keeps changing it makes it more difficult to nail them down so you can ban them. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
