    hah, I managed to get banned on my own server somehow (reason 7?)

    can't really just restart it with 55 people on though

    I'd appreciate a nice 'priority usernames' list feature that has a few users that can never be removed in any way, though. And slot reservations.

    In general having 1 extra 'reserved slot' is a good idea, would be a nice tie in with the whitelist/blacklist system

    For unbanning just restart server :/

    restarting server is kind of using a sledgehammer to solve an issue espescially when you have something like 60 people on

    Unfortunately this is pretty much the ONLY way to clear bans atm. Manual unbanning has never worked well at all and has completely quit working as the point as far as I can tell.

    The autobans are getting out of hand. My ping from home is never above 66 or so now and I still get banned on my on server once a week or so... I dont think the last patches fixed anything.

    The autobans really are annoying. Really, really annoying.

    You should be able to edit these ban/kick/white/black lists from RCON at the very least. At best, I'd love to see a robust interface, directly in game, that allows management of user and content issues. I shouldn't have to message the server admin to get him to SSH into the server box and kill/restart processes just to fix a user having a single issue.

    I think all of those things are coming. Also I was just banned on my own server again when I went to join after posting that last post...

    I just got banned from my own server again apparently, hah

    You should be able to at least have an interactive console in ssh so you can do stuff like \msg Server going down for maintenance or something.

    Thread has spiraled out of control and turned into a Server Wishlist. Someone should better start a separate thread ... Please post @ http://kagforum.com/index.php?threads/server-wishlist-and-suggestions.3291/ I'm especially looking at Teemo that has really good ideas but posts them at the end of various threads instead of compiling them.

    Locking and hoping to see you soon at the right thread :p
