Ok, some more: tried it with a teammate (normal user, no limad).

"!ban 3 El_Bitcho" -> AIRIO: "Username El_Bitcho added to the ban list for 3 days..."
Fore some reason he wasn´t kicked from server. He disconnected and joined again. Nothing..still not banned. I kicked him and he rejoined..still no ban

tried "!lban"
El_Bitcho 1247311490 void 2009-07-08 11:24:50 3

tried ""!unban El_Bitcho" -> AIRIO:"Username el_bitcho was not found on the ban list..."


hmmm...

Edit:

WOW... this feature works only with usernames...NOT WITH LFS-licensename ..that´s cool!

Banned user tried to connect on server: "el_bitcho was kicked for being on banlist" ...no info about date, length or when the ban will expire etc...


Ok, this it how it works:
Banning people online: rightclick on Username, no more CTRL+shift needed...!
Unban people: for !unban you still need the license-name, which makes sense ...worked, user is unbanned but still on the list

"!unban El_Bitcho" -> AIRIO:"Username el_bitcho was not found on the ban list..." ..but for some reason he is still listed

2.2.9 up and running

BanUsingAirio: Ok, some feedback. Easy to use, I´ll love the !lban feature...

Fiddled arround with a teammate. I tried to ban Beppo (limad2 can´t get a ban): AIRIO stated "username beppo is banned for 1 days" but of course nothing happens. ..OK

Then I unbanned him: AIRIO stated "username beppo is unbanned now" ..OK

But for some reason the unbanned user is still on the !lban-list.

Tried !rld (worked) AIRIO stated "all setup and cfg´s reloaded" and checked again with !lban...no changes, beppo is still on the list.

Ok, so I deleted (t)his entry from Airio.ban.txt:
"Beppo 1247136607 void 2009-07-08 10:50:07 1"

and tried !rld again but: My !rld-cmd is gone now Any ideas?

Tried to reconnect but it´s still gone... !pl is still working but !rld not...

Edit:
Deleted Airio.ban.txt and now !rld works again...!

Found out that ex-limads have to disconnect/reconnect to update their status from limad2 to normal user.. !rld can´t change their status onthefly when they are still connected to server...

Quote from EQ Worry :

LOL, too late.

Well I tried it yesterday but the server was filled with "addicts" from 8:00 in the morning till I went to sleep... With my limited knowledge the last thing I want to do is an onthefly-update. And turning off the lights while people racing isn´t very nice too.

Quote from EQ Worry :

I'll be sending a link in a short while, would welcome any feedback.

Don´t rush...! Feedback..? Of course!

Next time I should test the new features by myself before posting.
2.2.8 is now up and running on LR.

Cant wait to get 2.2.9 this into my fingers...
BanUsingAirio should be definitely an improvement for guests and admins.

Quote from Danny LFS :

Rules:

7. There will be 2 mandatory pit windows during the race. Tyre change is REQUIRED, so I recommend you to set "Tyre Change" to "Always" in the F12 menu.

Quote from Danny LFS :

Trac will be changed. at South City Sprint 2 (shortest tarmac track in the game AFAIK), for ultimate mayhem.

Ultimate mayhem..? Thats for sure: Gridsize=16, pitsize=0

You realy made my day!

Hiya Beddall

Your ban will be liftet in 30 days. Please check our forum and read the rules, especially the part about wrecking and revenge wrecking.

What teammate..? You mean the other retard that received a 30 days ban for wrecking you...?

This isn´t Banger Racing neither it is Destruction Derby. Please play your silly games elsewhere...

Mainly to force server owners/admins to take a closer look at the replay. Building up an own opinion works better as some blind copy&paste-actions from this (or any other) forum directly into the banlist...

Click on the link in my sig...

Update:

- changed servernames to "LR|Race Center"
- all servers added to remote
- added more tracks on both servers
- tweaked filters
- welcome-screens (rules) easier to understand for beginners (we hope)


Have fun!

S2 licensed


Congrats!

http://setupfield.teaminferno.hu/ ...mostly hotlap-sets, IMO not realy worth to try...

http://www.setupgrid.net/ ...way better!

Hmmm...

-no more "demo-user stigmatize" (joking)

-High-res-skin downloads...if you paid for

-generally cleaner racing on S2-servers (compared to demo-servers/drivers)

-more space for attachments on this forum

It´s quit easy. Just buy another S1-license/voucher and add it to your existent S1-account.

S1+S1=S2

Quote from EQ Worry :

...OK, I checked, the admin status is really used only in allowing special commands (such as the dangerous stats manipulation), not in joining and other checks. So using the number 5 (or higher) should really be effective...

Confirmed, tested with idling on track, wrong/non restrictions, lagging, autogears, etc.. worked like a charm. Thx alot

About version 2.2.8: (The "last raced on" message is again shown with every new connection.) ...That´s nice, but, honestly, who cares..?
In my opinion it´s a step back. The previous version was more comfortable/informative for admins and drivers. That´s the main reason why we haven´t updated LR-servers to 2.2.8.

For example:
Rank @ yourserver - yourname : Rookie
Jul 07 01:29:38 LFSW PB @ FE3+XFG - yourname : 2:09.73
..this clearly shows, that he´s relative new and his pb is quit bad compared to others. In other words: "hey admin, please keep an eye on him" ...or from a drivers sight "OMG, he will certainly suck on track, lets try to stay away from him"...


What about having some sort of switch to choose from both methods...maybe possible in AIRIO-setup (shift+i)...?

Quote from Bose321 :

Keep dreaming. For the next months.

..at least till friday!

All went normal on my side. No glitches since 20 minutes...

what skin..?

Nevermind, post reported!

Catched him earlier and told him nicely that using a team-skin is not very gentleman-like...

He immediately left the server...

EDIT:
He´s now racing for Red Bull (public skin)

Add some spice...

all cars have to drive in reverse, except STD/UF1

Improved "Allowed Limad Actions":

I was wondering if it´s possible to setup some "virtual limad5"-rule...
Just to check that limad4/admins are not allowed to do some "stupid" things by misstake. Same rules for everyone.

For example: At the moment AIRIO can´t send limad4/admins to spec after idling on track. limad4/admins are allowed to drive cars without the proper restriction without a warning...etc.

Sometimes I´d like to race by myself too, and the last thing I want is to break my own rules (by misstake).

Thx alot, both received a solid /999 on LR-servers...

Of course you can join!

...and when you get additional 1357 points you can race there too....

Yep, rules stated onscreen. Connect and check yourself...

Please don´t worry about the servers and your points!

I can say we will definitely continue running them.
Racing on LR|Race Center 2 (NGT/GT2/GTR) hasn´t even started yet. We don´t know why, 31 racers are ready to race on it.

Lightning-Racing.de had some HDD-trouble yesterday. Server is in maintenance now.

Edit:
Update: Problem solved, we´re back to business. Lightning-Racing.de is online again!
