Alliedassault - View Single Post - Utility for Admin's to share banned IP's with other Admin

Yup, I agree fully. There's a good potential for abuse. One thing I was considering adding to this script (or rather the companion script that runs on the server to handle submitted IP's..ie sorting ...adding new IP's etc etc) would be to have each NEW IP submitted along with a date stamp.

The serverside script would look at the date that goes with each new IP and remove it from the "master list" after a week? 3 days? ...something along those lines. Just long enough for "punishment"...mwuahahahaha

I need a few trusted admins to help me test this.

I didn't plan of having every tom dick and harry using it for non-dedicated servers. It's more for the big time server admins. The 32 player, 24/7 type admins...like Ck...rudedog....whoever runs the 2 dozen barry's world servers...moheast west north and south too...lol. It's mostly for the dudes in the big leagues.

The way I see it, anyone who's gonna plunk down the big bucks for professional hosting is probably mature enough to handle the responsibility.

Since adminalliance.com isn't fully operational yet it's kinda hard to find responsible volunteers to test this out. I should probably get in touch with DOA and see what he thinks. I think that it should only be handed out to members in the "Alliance". That way he/we'd know who's doing what with it and help set the criteria for who gets it and who doesn't.

I hear what your saying Joe,... it would be a shame for someone to be banned "gamespy wide" for some trivial offence, but if there's on thing that really pisses me off it's leaving a good game because of TK's only to find the same clown on another server 1/2 an hour later.
