I just noticed something strange. There was an IP ban for 60 minutes. However the IP got unbanned immediately after a few seconds. I have noticed this a few other times happening. From the logs:
*I have removed the name and ip's

[code](08:43:19) player joining game (xx.xxx.xxx.51:1117)
(08:43:20) player has joined bravo team.
(08:43:27) Thinggaard scores for Alpha Team
(08:43:40) player captured the Red Flag
(08:43:49) Thinggaard captured the Blue Flag
(08:43:58) player returned the Blue Flag
(08:44:05) player scores for Bravo Team
(08:44:08) Bad Boy captured the Red Flag
(08:44:27) Bad Boy scores for Bravo Team
(08:44:32) player has been kicked and banned for 60 minutes
(08:44:46) IP number xx.xxx.xxx.51 unbanned[/code]

um this is weird,

but did you see this happen ingame? or while studying a log?

if you saw it in a log it may be possible that the persons ip in question is actually a remote admin of the server in question and thus the game does not ban them (or if it does, it unbans them as soon as it notices).

Here is another example:

08:37:56) BUTT[CENSORED] joining game (69.252.137.xxx:2413)
(08:37:56) BUTT[CENSORED] has joined alpha team.
(08:37:57) BUTT[CENSORED] is flooding the server
(08:37:59) [Fire Ice and lighting] i caught up fast
(08:38:03) BUTT[CENSORED] has been kicked and permanently banned
(08:38:05) BUTT[CENSORED] has been kicked and permanently banned
(08:38:05) 201.154.249.111:1356 requesting game...

Nothing, bad joke. My connection jacks my ping from 50-150 to 1500-5000, gets irritating.

I see, I am sorry if you get ping kicked from the server. I have the max ping at 350. However I would like an answer to my main question by someone who knows what's wrong.

it is most likely a bug in the server, and I will be sure to mention it to MM next time I see him in a thread about a new server he is working on
