    Is there already a How to of the new Kick and Ban system?

    Okay I know what a kick means, but how long will this kick last?

    Is a player who has been kicked from the server automatically been banned on the server?

    If yes, how long? For this session? For a day/week/month/forever?

    Is there a editable banlist/blacklist somewhere?

    I have the same question. But from the looks of it I'm gonna find a answer. Doesn't seem to work as it is now but I don't know if I'm doing it right.

    I have used the kick ban system quite a bit, a kick removes them from the server but they can rejoin immediately,so no time limit, a ban is permanent but can be revoked by the server owner at any time

    So its as easy as clicking the button..I have discovered other issues like the server freezing up at the end of a race. Perhaps they are related..... a few more hours looking for a solution.

    Apart from the lost of server settings when that ip is reset. and that is a on going problem, x fingers then next update will solve that, I tend to have 4 or 5 servers running and they are rock solid; even with 3 full, I do host them on a separate machine now; used to use my main PC and was still rock solid, good luck sorting yours

    I have played on your server(s) never had a problem except maybe ping. I'm only trying to run one server on a separate PC, it only has 4gigs of ram. I'm wondering if it's enough...I could steal 4gig from my gaming rig but then I would only have 12gig in it. Haven't run into any IP issues. Also wonder if synergy software is a issue. Lots to do now. I'll post what happens later.

    Thank you for giving my servers a try; slowly getting some names popping up regularly; the more that has happened the less shall we say idiots causing issues, not to say I do not cause the odd crash myself ;);) you will always be welcome

    I`d like to see the ability to prevent DQ drivers from re-entering the game at all. ATM if they`re DQ in practice/quali they can just come back in.

    tried disabling fire wall, anti virus, other suspect software, stole 4 g of ram from my wifes machine (shhhhh) with no luck.
    but by using the hidden admin account in windows every thing seems to work as it should. perhaps its a permissions issue IDK
