As an admin, can I ban if...

[meta87 25]

Hello all!

I was just thinking about server administration and was curious about some things.

My group watches the player list during any engagements to be sure to have the name of players who combat log or combat log and return in a new position to try to get the drop on you.

My question is to the Dev's.

As a server admin, do I have the right to ban players who I know are combat logging and server hopping after engaged to come back in a new spot to try to get a drop on you (player is engaged, disconnects, joins a new server and repositions, then logs back to your server)?

So many times I get the names of players who do this but do nothing to stop them from returning to my server, as I am unsure if I am allowed to do this.

Any information would be greatful.

Thanks!

100% bannable.

Sorry, I had trouble finding it in that thread that server admins can ban users for this. Can you point me to it? Thanks! Obviously there is confusion as in the thread I posted indicates from staff that this is NOT something admins can ban for.

It is using a known exploit. you can ban for it. Almost every server I play on does.

Exploit = ban in my book.
