Silkroad Online Forums

Aside from about 20 spam accounts and a few select users posting pro-bot arguments, I had to ban a "range" of IP addresses using wild cards.

This may / may not affect other users.

If you are having problems please contact, and I will look into it.

Last note.

Users posting pro bot arguments or openly bragging about Old Johnny will be banned.

Even if people feel sorry for you.
Even if users post threads petitioning your SRF existence.
Even if you make a freedom of speech post.

You will be banned.

ban all teh way

wouldent banning with wildcards in IP's be relatively destructive? I understand that you havent banned the world, but using a wild card for any octet is effectively banning ~250 people. Whether that was the intention or not.

Also, by banning ip's what if i am randomly assigned an ip which you have banned?

I understand that banning needs to take place. I jsut dont know if banning ranges of IP's with wild cards is the most effective method.

Most of that falls under acceptable losses.

Billions and billions of IP addresses in the world.

The current IP system allows for 4,228,250,625 IP adress combinations.

As said, if there happens to be a problem, contact.

well just hope you aint in that range i guess

"Ryoko, I am your father!" said Ryo-Ohki as he sliced off his hand with the modsaber...

thread cleaned, removed alot of stuff including references to 'Arkansas inter-family relations'. No idea what any of that had to do with the topic.

Hmmm no jokes are alowed anymore to i see...........................the other can you take it of to..is not to do with the topic also..

Ryoko do you think you could post a ban list each month of who you have banned we know about spam bots but nice to see a list rather then someone just disppearing

The list of spambots, pr0n and drug sellers is pretty huge. I was shocked. For every one you see there's probabaly at least 10 you didn't. They go away daily.

I'm a fan of a posted ban list, but I'd say to keep it locked to prevent whining from those on it (that make new accounts) and their groupies.

yeh agreed


either way srf ban list wil be bigger then joymaxs

Where is this ban list or is the list hide somewhere?

A ban list would be excellent to show that this forum does not support botting, gold buying or any other bannable matters. Especially since it is a big part of the game to alot of players coming here.

I used to be able to keep my flaimining kept verbaly between me and my computer screen, but the ammount of pro-botters posting here lately has really changed that.

It doens't exist, and the final say isn't mine.

@ hellsharpt ok..

Edit:::How often looks you in your PM mods ? And why dont answer them.
when is important to have answer back.
P.s Some is good to answer back ,but not all mods and Ryoko to sometimes..

And where Is Ryoko He have a beauty's sleeping time ..

And where Is Ryoko He have a beauty's sleeping time ..

im wondering that but he is checking his mails but like usual i have to wait years for a reply i just wont get[/quote]

Just like in real life people answer those questions they deem to be important. It's also possible that people are unavailable.

If you don't get a response from a mod, or admin there's probabaly a reason and there's no need to make a public post about it.

If it is vitally important (like when the OTL was having issues) try contacting a couple mods. Usually at least one person is on throught the day, every day.

<.< - >.>
Well most of the day

N yes, if a mod doesnt reply the second you PM them, just have a lil patience. Some of us could be unavailable at times, or have otherthings on hand.

N dont be mad if the answer u get in a PM isnt exactly they one you want

@ hellsharpt

Is only a question nothing else..
And see no one reaply to Master_wong ..so all is important PMs. And even if they are online sometimes we dont have answer back...Ok better i stop it now...--

@Key-J yea hmm if it is not so bad answer so i can try to not be so mad

Please reread and draw your conclusions from there.
