You make a very good point on banning players. Cooki3, but if the admin knows what they are doing. They could ban the whole sub net down to the class B or even C but then know one would be playing on there server. So it defeats the purpose.

It's easier to have active admins who manually kick someone. It's even better when the "person" being kicked tries to release and renew his/her IP by resetting their modem. It takes 10x longer to do that then hit the ban button on autokick.

This goes back to: How do you really know why the person is being banned? did they just play too good that day and pissed the admin off as Cooki3 stated?

I'm all for banning players who cheat but a public banning is not the way to go, IMO
