So how long before we start seeing badmin posts? Anyone interested in me adding a searchable bans list to BFRepublic?
-Anxiously waiting for them juicy tears.

There aren’t enough active custom rental servers for there to be any complaints imo.
actualy one admin , the guy who rented the server, can kick/ban… you cant assign other teammates as admins… why dice, why?
just curious from where would you get a source data? ![]()
It’s a double edged sword. Can’t keep everyone happy, but I’m sure many more would prefer to have more control over their servers at the cost of a few owners going rogue.
badmins and now rogue admins, that escaled quickly…
Renegade for life.
How would you accomplish this? I mean it would be awesome but how would that transfer over or would the server admin be forced to enter all people banned into the DB manually??
Salty tears are the best tears.
The write up is posted on BFrepublic, but the gist is to only allow registered platoon founders, admins, server admins submit entries. And yes, manually. Proof of infraction will be required. Screenshots, video etc.
I don’t like sites that list “fishy” bans/kicks. “Your numbers are suspect!” Those just feed the hackusation and badmin aspects of the community. No proof with substance … no entry.
@Rev0verDrive
well ye that would be a good start i guess. Tho since there will be no way to manualy input IDs into ones server ban database…
… as list of random rage hackers, why not. butbut…manual work ![]()
We don’t know what they plan to do in the future. They could expand the functionality to allow important and export of the bans list. I’d assume they will eventually allow you to transfer bans from one server to the next in some fashion. Versus forcing you to have to deal with the same player on another comm/clan server.
As far as the manual work goes … Most organized communities and clans already do this.
I’m banned from 2 servers already, do I win ![]()
I laughed way too hard at that.
Yup! you win. I’ll personally add you to the list. >![]()

Most of all clan members are angry because the silly RSP program at the moment. Hope it won’t let them mutate to badmins. StarscreamUK, I would ask Ali why you are banned?
Don’t take my comment to serious. ![]()
I’m banned because some server admins don’t like the fact that even though I don’t like how the RSP has been done, I still have to enforce the rules in this section. It’s a hazard of the role, and to be honest, if that’s how they act, then thats a server that I don’t want to revisit.
I suspect that they’re Autobots.
Insert comment about me banning you for the lulz
It’s nice we finally have something. But given that it’s tied to the server owner and as OP stated the waiting for badmins. This is still going to be a long, annoying and rough ride. Not to forget that the functions don’t seem to work that well.
Also, this forced us to start account sharing since you can’t expect someone to be around 24/7. Got to love the security risks right?
funny stuff, quick googling states that acount/origin sharing is not allowed in EAs TOS
so server owners are made to break TOS, due to lack of the working features, interesting
@Rev0verDrive I think it would be great to get a bans list, though personally I think it should only be made specifically for hacking - thats one thing all servers will have in common. Abuse/grief/racism should be shared but in the case of someone having a “one-off” moment of anger it would be a shame to be blanket banned.
Spectating and making a video shouldn’t be too hard so proof would be easy enough. I think it should go through a process, perhaps all admins/clan founders can submit their videos and all other admins/clan founders can vote yay/nay on whether they are hacking. This would give more conclusive evidence as there would be more eyes/votes over time when more admins sign up - then the other server owners can make an educated call whether to add that person to the banned list.
