Only Warthog is banned. They will be until they're respectable and follow the rules.
You can try to fool me like you did the ban system but I'm not a computer (as far as you know), and so am much harder to trick. Even if you genuinely think you can follow the rules from now on there's also the fact that old vices die hard. It would take a while to change with your best effort

Does ban evader means that you have more than one account?

A ban evader is someone who joins a server after the server told them not to

My advice as admin, to avoid long useless discussions ... make a video and share this then to the admin(s)
easy, clear and fast ...

Thanks for your answers.

i ve so many videos but idk where to post it. Kat said to send it on discord but i dont have discord account and dont want to create one for now. so where i can send my CTF best of?

Once ive found a list with admins and moderators on ctf, maybe there was contact but i cant refound the web page...

Festus you are admin and I know that Lone_Wolf too, so can i send them to you in private message? there is a better place where you centralise the report?

It's clear that video have to be examined, maybe you ll found that metrics are not good enough to exclude a lag, but when i'm convinced that a player have the cheat machine enable and start the video record my jitter is multiplicate by a value between 10 and 100 (i dont understand why but its not the problem°).


Maybe it will help to exclude cheaters and let normal players enjoy CTF.

Maybe Youtube channel ?
For security could be a closed one, only access to admins known/trusted/verified ...
but when offered like just before in report option, use it - if only for that server,
and if maybe useful for others also then Youtube, but then would only make sense if IP might be available

I was searching a solution to hosting videos... finally i post here :
https://gofile.io/d/0nGBl4

No registration needed to upload or download but files are deleted after 10days of inactivity...

The final video is less than 4 minutes but maybe need to be watch in slow motion. I used OpenShot and export the video in HD at 60fps but it seems to be accelerated than originals capture.
The timeline is in a separated text file and i m interested in your feed back on the sequences.

I'm reading your answer now... I needed a way to send video report, just an Email would have be the easyest way to do that... If you think that it could have any utility for others you can use it as you need, like a CC0 file, and published it on youtube. I dont understand what you mean by "would only make sense if IP might be available" but in any case i dont want that my IP to be made public in any way.


Any comment or advice are welcome to select videos before submit (for example minimal and maximal metrics value)

misunderstanding,
an public ban list with a video source of proof and behavior makes only real sense when the bad-gamer-IP address (3 of 4, without last IP block) as the gamer name itself doesn't prevent he comes back just with another name.
a good ban mod need to combine name and used IP-Block, other wise useless.

Ok : misunderstanding : I'm not staff member

Lucy in game have wrote that there are no proof in my video because my connection is laggy.

For example in the first sequence with ___X___, the metrics values i usually check are near the best i can reach :
FPS=137 ; RTT=57.00ms ; JIITER=9.3%
We can see a "fly" at 00:10 and the pillar at 00:19 : I've not seen it before and this is a proof that my connection don't work well.
So contrary to what i thought, maybe the others gamers don't use cheats like fastmove, autoclick or kill-aura.

To not waste time in thinking wrong and exclude lag issues which parameters are relevant and what should be the values to be meaningful?

Edit :
I get an answer in game mailbox :
  • minimal values to exclude lags are not determinated
  • fight in 1v1 with the suspected gamers
  • watch videos attentively in slow-motion before submit
I ve to keep in mind that in most situations lag is the cause
_Thank you all for your answers_
