That's bad news - seen this before on other servers.  Do you know the names of the people who were banning, or was it all too quick?

Welcome, btw, sorry your first experience has not been a good one; this is not usual for the dMr servers. :(

Post there names or the times they were on, Doorman can check logs and take action I am sure.  It's unfortunate no admins were on at the time, they usually clear up such immature behaviour faster than you can say 'history'.

Welcome!
I'm sorry about that. The admins are mostly on in the evenings (gmt). I seem to remember that vote banning wasn't allowed on our server. Maybe that option was left on when we moved the server to another hardware last month.

I'm sure Doorman will check it out soon.

Tubbz unbanned, Judas Priest and horse of hell both banned 999 days.

Sorry but that's the demo server, we had vote ban turned off and wreckers rule, we turn vote ban on and two tards can ban joiners, it's a no win situation :ranting2:

I'm still working through the Airio configs and will eventually make all people registered here as a level one admin.

Just want to add that the demo server is still in it's "beta" state so there's only two official admins atm, Spoong and me, so if anyone has problems rather than bothering Oldie or Doors, one of us should be able to sort it out.

Go slowly, build up speed gradually. South City doesn't tolerate mistakes. Better to avoid nasty barriers eh? :norty:

andreas_15, matty1593 and criscuo banned 999 days, spoong unbanned.

Joe, I made you a Limad2 so if you forget to use your admin pass again then you should be unbannable.

ta - I never use the admin password, as it's so rare I need to, so that ought to help. :)

Is voting allowed on the Demo server then?

Yes, the lesser of two evils.
