TJW bypass?
« on: December 25, 2006, 12:14:10 pm »
well, some of you know me, I am |AoD|Green and ran into some difficulties banning some deconners from a server I admin. When I tried simply !ban Owned it came back with this message:

!ban: usage |name|slot|IP (duration) (reason)

I know full well how to !ban people, seeing as how I've done it before, but I did !namelog and tried IP banning him. It returned the same error message, so I did !ban 20 100000w (just to fill in the duration) deconning

Same error message was returned...

Is there a hack that makes players invisible to TJW? Because this same thing happened to me yesterday... :eek:  :-?

!kick seems to work but not !ban.. I believe it's the color codes in players names that are messing up !ban. If all else fails keep continuing to kick by player #..

For a work around you could edit admin.dat and then readconfig .)

I don't host the server, I'm a senior admin on it.

I've seen something similar happen on fun-zone with a deconner wtih NO colors.

 !ban xxx.xx.xx.xx Deconner

Instead of banning him , i get a nice new fresh namelog in my console....sweet.

Try '!ban Owned 100000w deconning' ?

Unless this server is specially configured you need both a DURATION and a REASON for the ban.

Just because their name shows up white, doesn't mean there's no colors. :-)

A hunch:
I faintly remember that a 100000w is not possible .)
9d
9w
9m
9y

they are all converted to seconds, and the max time (for any unit, excluding permaban of course) is 2147483647 seconds.

you just need to have the host add a flag to the admin.dat.

thanks, turns out I need a reason and a duration for the ban... and 2147483647 seconds turns out to be 3550.733 weeks, or 68.283 years... That would seem permanent enough ;)

Duration of 0 is permanently permanent :D
If my answer to your problem doesn't seem helpful, it means I won't help you until you show some effort to fix your problem yourself!
1.2.0 release's been delayed for 5:48:00 already because of stupid questions.

...and only allowed for those admins that don't need a duration anyway.
