I havent looked at the forums to see if this has been suggested or not. I'm just putting this out there.

We need a way to make IP bans possible. I'm ignorant to, if they are possible or how we would have to make them possible but since CS:GO especially, has become Free To Play. I am experiencing a huge increase in obvious level 1 accounts joining after racial bans. Wasting their own time in many ways to just shout racial slurs or RDMing or whatever the case may be.

It's getting real tiring having to repeatedly ban the same people on new accounts. It's becoming a real grind of mine and probably other admins.

If there's at least something to be done about it, like maybe certain new accounts, with like under a certain amount of hours on CSGO, 50hrs or idk. Maybe if the account is less than 1 month old or some amount of time. Maybe there's a way to find out certain requirements. Maybe they need their profile not privatised so we can see these criteria otherwise they cannot join the server.

Many different things could potentially be used maybe perhaps if it's possible, to determine whether or not they should be allowed to play.

IP ban can be severe or what have you, I don't know peoples opinions but if other things could be implemented to at least try to counteract the high traffic of new accounts to cause disruption.

Having CSGO be free 2 play basically made bans for community servers like JB and such very useless... because theres VPNs and that CSGO is free soooo....
 
We have talked about this alot from the forum but i never got the real talk in it, i totally agree with you for there is alot of ban evader we have to ban over and over again, but its also esay to check the ip, but its something we are not allowed to do since its illegal, but if we can get the ip bans in let O's and above have that command for it will make it esaier for the whole community and yes its hard to make the command since you need different permissions from stuff i dont know of, but the other thing i think O's should have it is that they are trusted and know what they are doing, and if we found someone abusing that, we should make a CL and get him removed and then dont have O's to have that command anymore.


but on the other hand i think CS leadership and above is talking about this kind of stuff, for its getting irritabel for us and those that have to continueless make ban request, and when i just see a leaderhip member proccesing that kind of stuff he is annoyed it the same person ban evading over and over again, so if we could get more suggestion its great for this is some serious bussiness for us and the community.

IP bans are in discussion for when the new Maul upgrade comes out. I'm not sure when Maul 3.0 will be out but hopefully this will assist with the repeat offenders.
 
This has indeed been talked about before, and I agree that steps can be taken to avoid it, but there is more too it than that. I don't see it as a super urgent issue at the moment. I think the server is the same as it has been. RDM really only happens from new players, no matter how you look at it. If people join the server with a new account and start breaking rules, it's as easy as just banning them again.
 
This is the 1039th thread I've seen asking for IP bans, so let me make this as clear as possible.

IP BANNING CANNOT BE IMPLEMENTED UNTIL THE NEXT VERSION OF MAUL IS FINISHED.
And before anyone asks, there's no definite time frame for when that will be.

I mean doesn't it only take 2 seconds to do something? Like why can't we just have everything that everyone wants since it obviously only takes 2 seconds.

For real though, most people making threads/posts like this must not realize this is all voluntary and takes hours upon hours of dedication to improve things that are already good.

Also since when has checking an ip been illegal? Because if it's truly illegal then idk how this one game I used to play got away with it as bans were automatically by ip and admins who had ban abilities were able to see ip's.
 
Actually there is a fix to this, prime only. There is now a feature allowing only prime players to join your server "sv_prime_accounts_only". You see this is very common on retake and 1v1 servers due to the influx of cheaters. Now this could cause lots of problems like not allowing new people who actually want to play the game to join our servers, so truthfully i dont think that should be enabled, but it is an option.

hey
get some ban practice in

wield that mother ****ing hammer with the most might and ban all the repeat offenders until maul 3 comes out.

i would make a wintersun album joke here, but i'm 94% sure no one would get it.

The only option we really have is IP banning, which will hopefully be coming in the next version of MAUL. We won't be enabling prime only at this time and other options such as having x amount of hours or a certain comp rank have already been looked into and aren't viable. Thanks for the suggestion though!
