Can I get a quick explanation of vban.
logs shows it's kicking a lot of people for "command spamming: vban"

AND
Is it worth perma banning these guys local(our servers), since it is kicking the same ones over and over.

this is just over a few days.

Code: Select all

command spamming: vban 2fffff 2fffff 1
command spamming: vban 1fffbf 1fffbf 1
command spamming: vban fffff fffff 1
command spamming: vban 1fefff 1fefff 1

I'm going to look into it. Though I do not know why the client would be legitimately spamming the server with vban. Seems odd.

Curious, to my understanding the vban command is used when people choose to "mute" someone via their client (not admin).

Is this happening when that occurs?

I'm not 100% sure since I am not in the server most of the day I just come check the logs at the end of the day and usually get about 15-20 of these kicks a day. Generally we have atleast 1 admin on about 90% of the day so if anyone was spamming a mic that a player would mute them they would usually be kicked before it got to that point.
