That'll explain why there's so few new players trickling into the fortress game.Lucifer wrote:At least, fortress showed us that if you kick people right away a lot, they quit coming back...

maybe a little much, bit wild west servers had some pretty nasty players too, admin impersonators and such, causing a big ruckus. Anyway, whoever it was also kept rotating IP and I always thought it might be cool to have some sort of ID tag embedded in the game itself.. Sure, the user just has to reinstall, but now they have to rotate their IP _AND_ reinstall...

Is it possible to turn off dynamic I.P.s then? I know of one person, an Australian player, that has their I.P change just a little each time they come online. The whole re-installing thing would most likely drive them away from tron then.
Does the person use the same name everytime? Is it possible to set up the server so that it automatically bans a person with said name every time they enter the server?
Best of luck with making him leave.

Yes, and, this being an open source game, they'll also quickly find a way to generate a new ID without a reinstall. It would just be something that slows them down, with no other additional use.zoidberg wrote:Some people are quite determined...
Paladin: the ID would just be something to ban people by; you would not be required to get a new ID every time your IP changes.
