If the guy is nice enough to provide an autohost server for members of the public to play on, then it's his right to do with it as he wants. Some people seem to think it's their god given right to consume other peoples cpu and bandwidth...
i just think its funny becaus that means alot of ppl are banned, i have nothing against him or his autohost and play on it alot

Welcome fascists, enjoy your stay, and try not to create too much drama.

Heading slightly OT, but the reason for disabling certain functions is that people have started launching DoS attacks on autohosts. Vulnerable commands are disabled to prevent your game from crapping out half way through because some script kiddy ragequit and decided to kill the server.

Children,
The roll clan is to my understanding one person. If they are not, then they should have thought twice before letting that one person use their account to grief. No shit what did you think would happen?
Some commands are disabled because the people you claim are victimized would repeatedly run these commands until the bot exceeded the master server traffic limit. I will try to explain this in a simple way:
IF IT HAPPENS DURING YOUR GAME, YOUR GAME MAY END.
Well not all of you, since so many of you are banned now isn't it? Regret must have been a pretty good ban, considering the low level noise he's making in the thread.
You are free to continue your circle jerk of zomgwtfbbqlol. You do not understand the situation, and when explained to you all you can think is "lol", and go right back to your stupid opinions. Fortunately for all, you are irrelevant.
This thread is a place for people that were unfairly banned to present their arguments and replays. You will notice that for all the talk, nobody walked the walk. So i my reading of this is that there isn't a single unfair ban and all admins are tiptop.
To be honest, before this thread i thought there may be a rogue admin banning too much. Now i don't think that anymore, but i am still open for complaints.
Mephistos is a busy man and the lack of any substance in the posts in this thread is probably why he won't come here.
Meanwhile Mephisto's Lair is the best and fairest autohost, each day getting better thanks to the removal of the scum.
Try not to be scum. It is possible.

Ladies and gentlemen, showing you that ultimately, being the best and fairest means never having any players.

[14:18:08] ** Server ** Mephistos_Lair's in-game time is 50100 minutes.
[14:18:50] ** Server ** [roll]NotSuperSly's in-game time is 5012 minutes.
Considering that the host's account has
ten times as much ingame time as you, that statement hardly bears weight.

I'm just going to go with 'You're a dumbass' and let you work out why by yourself.

oh you guys, if I had a host I would ban way more people and it would be great. I'm sure most of you feel the same way.
