Post by Grr »

Hi JiF's
I appeared to have been banned from your server. I am not sure exactly why because I have never been kicked or warned of any poor behavior. The only people I ever mess with are my clan mates, never puby's or Jif personnel. One day I was playing and everything was fine, the next day banned. Maybe a case of mistaken identity of something? Ask Hoosier about me, he knows me well, and can confirm my story and gaming conduct.

If an admin banned you they'll be on shortly to let you know why. We have had one case when someone got auto-banned for too many TK's or something like that. If that is the case, then Mike will have to fix it for you. What name were you using? I can check the admin ban list to see if you are there, but I have no idea how to check the auto-ban list.

I'm sure we can sort this out. What name do you usually use when you play on our server? Also, what's your key hash? With that info I can find out what happened. :)

It was probably .::]MW[::.Grr or possibly just Grr. I would have to get back with you on the key hash.

Can't find your name on the ban list, so either it was only for 1-3 days or just a server hiccup. Try again and see if you can get on.

I couldn't find it either. If you can get on other servers, but not ours, then Mike will have to check the auto-ban list. Unless you got banned playing under another name. Post here so Mike will know to check.

I tried today and I'm still banned. Lets try a keyhash:

I don't see that on the list either. Mike will have to check the autoban list.

EDIT: I sent a note to Mike, but don't know how long it will take for him to look. He's at work now. Thanks for your patience.

Ban has been found and lifted. After the current map is over the ban should be gone.

Go to the console by pressing the ~ key. The console will appear, then type game.listplayers. to display a list of the current players. Next to your current alias, your CD Hash is listed.

A keyhash is the 20 digit mix of letters and numbers that identify your copy of the game.
it is the code you have to enter when you install the game

It is NOT the code you have to enter when install the game. That is the CD key.
