Banned for no Reason

**w4jchosen** · 11-20-07, 09:23 AM

While I can't confirm when Oz got banned, I left shortly after the switch over to the USMC side, I can confirm that Oz was in my squad. Initially he was not and he was heading up squad 3 (I believe a two man squad), but his squad mate ran into a problem. He then switched over to our squad for the rest of the round on the Chinese side.

I am asking to be unbanned since I did nothing wrong.

we can certainly guarantee it was you, since bans are by hash, and not by name. if you try to connect, and it says you are banned.....then it was you that physically got banned, and not some mistake in us placing it on the list. that's not how it works.

At any time last night, were you just sitting idle and not in a squad?

You should have noticed you were kicked or banned for 1 minute and had to Reconnect.

How about give us a little more accurate account of your limited time on our server last night.

Our position is you were afk or idle for longer than 5 minutes the first time and not in a squad and the second time you reconnected, we experienced the same thing with you as well.

So you tell us, what was going on here last night?

I have no clue, I only played like 2-3 rounds last night and last round was with with w4jchosen, and after the round I went to get a drink and came back and I was banned. So maybe it was a glitch but I assure you whatever happend is not normal with me. I play only on squads and have the upmost respect for everyone on the server. So please accept my applogies and sorry for the inconvience since I was not tring to do anything wrong. All I want to do is play and have fun. I did forget something check logs before i got banned. I told admin I could not get the Commander button to work and then I was booted. I said it more then once but please check this and this maybe the key to what happend. I was not in a squad we just started map and I could not go commander. But I was not able to log back on after that.

fair enough. I will submit your vote to the BF2 admins. it will be resolved in less than 3 days.

We voted to overturn your ban.... You may Reconnect to the server... Please make sure we don't have this identical problem again.

Resolved.

Hi guys. im using the non steam version of L4D2 and the way i installed the l4d2 custom map was using gcfscape and extracting all the folders of the vpk file into the l4d ones. im 100% i did that correctly as i can load the map fine. but when it comes to playing it, the colours lines and errors that i see are shown below in the picture im going to attatch. if anyone.. and i mean ANYONE has a solution for this.. i would love your help and i will greatly appreciate it.. please dont be discouraged or start raging because i am using the non steam version..

thanks again.. and i hope somebody out there will be able to cure my problem!
