We have had an ongoing ban list for about 4 years now and it's up to 4331. We updated scourcebans and did a lot of work on steamids last night only to find a email this morning saying valve reverted it back! Sigh: more wasted time and sleep on behalf of valve. Thanks for the tip and the homework newlove, after we updated I just had to go looking for the feature!
Side note: in source bans, to enable this group banning feature you need to go to Admin Panel>Settings>Features>Enable Group Banning Here is our list for anyone that is interested http://banlist.righttorule.com -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of msleeper Sent: Tuesday, February 17, 2009 7:00 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] Group Banning And You Since you decided to chime in here, anyone who wants the F7 ban list will need to remove Karl if you want him to play on your servers. He had some hacker that got posted here on the mailing list on his friends list. "So he could block communication with him" he thinly rationalized, even though you very obviously don't need to have someone on your friend's list to block them.
