Outcome admin meeting: New member, strikelist reset

[Mati]

Hello neonDragon members and players,
we had an admin meeting today were we discussed about a few things. The outcome includes also one bigger change, and is as follows:

1) Spato got recruited for nD* Jail.

2) The JB mapcycle got updated - some older/boring maps got removed (jail_smith_v4, jail_electric_large, jail_xmf_renner).

3) After careful consideration, we decided to change to a more advanced bansystem (AMX Bans v5) and simultaneously resetting the strikelist because of its age and extremely high amount of bans. The strikelist currently covers over 2300 (!) Bans, excluding older bans and AMX-bans. It has come to a level where we questioned the validity of it, with hundreds of dead and partially invalid entries due to changed rules and structures nowadays (for example back in the past we used to give mass FKers two strikes, now it's one).

We know that it might be disturbing for some people, but keep in mind that rule breakers will definately get banned very fast again, and that we actually can refer ourselves only to *recent* incidents afterwards, instead of heaving all those flimsy entries in a giant list. As a positive side-effect, it is expected that the server traffic will increase and many players will receive another chance by that.

We think that's a fair act for everyone, and hope you're ok with it as well.

The migration needs a bit time but it will soon be ready. New reports and recent reports (1 month or newer) will be put in the new bansystem and strikelist.

Will hackers remain banned?

[Mati]

Yes. Cheaters where proof still exists will REMAIN permbanned.

[Tox1c]

same goes for every one else that got banned for massive freekilling etc?

[Whatever]

Congratulations Spato, good job about the maps and the ban system.

[anTi]

Congratulations once again to Spato!

Hope that most of the people that have access to the servers again will behave, or they will probably get banned pretty fast again anyway.

Yes. Cheaters where proof still exists will REMAIN permbanned.

Well i spoke about this thing with east clubber earlier today but i wanted to see with the other admins aswell.
Will 2click (the ex member) get permbanned aswell? From what i know there is no proofs beside his vac banned account.

The strikelist reset was obviously a joke, and is not going to happen. It was hard to make it look somehow convincing, especially after SultaN's april fools topic, but we tried our best, and it seems that at least a few believed it
