I dont know whats up with 24/7 seattle based but...

Here SysOps can list their MultiPlayer server info and users can send feedback to their SysOps. Or just talk about the MultiPlayer servers they play on. This is not about MultiPlayer in general - please use the MultiPlayer Forum for that!

I dont know whats up with 24/7 seattle based but...

Ok, I dont know what the problem is with 27/7 seattlebased. I set up a user acount under "Maxy". I play for a few days, finally start doing well get a really good ship, etc. Then me and my family go on vacation. I come back, try to log on and it says that my acount has been BANED from the the server. My server name is "Maxy" and last time I checked thats fine. WHY was I baned??????!!!!!

I have never shot, swore, picked on, etc. at ANYBODY. WHY WAS I BANED???

I love your server because its so clean of cheaters and the like. I apoligize for getting grumpy over this but I see NO reason for my baning. Please corect me if im wrong.

A confused player.

So why was he banned? All I see is a message saying possible cheat detected. Based on his post, it seems this was never really followed up...a little quick on the ban button, aren't we? Especially with some of the other posts floating around talking about how legit things or FLMod (e.g. not really the player's fault) errors result in a "possible" cheat detection.

This certainly does not mean that a player was cheating. In this case, I think the player should be unbanned. It is very doubtful he was actually cheating. Many players have gotten this kick, when they weren't cheating.

It's called Collateral Damage. Sometimes it is a necessary evil for the better of the whole. While Collateral Damage is nearly impossible to elminate, it should be managed and kept at a optimal level.

i agree. I think false baning happens too often. If someone is cheating, u should do something like take a screenshot and send to admin? I dont know but i think its gotton redicules.

That is the closest thing to a screenshot that the FLServer program provides itself.

Yea a couple of false bannings do occur as a result of FLServer reports, but in an effort to keep a server stable and fast you take the good with the bad sometimes.
