I've been getting this.. Is this something I'm doing wrong or was the cvar strign reduced?

/rcon addIP XXX.XXX.XXX
g_banIPs overflowed at MAX_CVAR_VALUE_STRING

For what it's worth the source has this comment:

Quote from: game/g_svcmds.cTTimo NOTE: for persistence, bans are stored in g_banIPs cvar MAX_CVAR_VALUE_STRING
The size of the cvar string buffer is limiting the banning to around 20 masks
this could be improved by putting some g_banIPs2 g_banIps3 etc. maybe
still, you should rely on PB for banning instead

So does g_banIps2/3 exsist in the current build?

The admin system me and R1CH (mostly R1CH thus far) are working on doesn't use cvars so you won't have this silly limitation.
