View Full Version : Voted admins can perm ban people from your server!

I was testing out the various commands today, and a VOTED admin can use #exec ban ID to perm ban people from your server.

For public server providers this is not acceptable as this kind of power to perm ban should not be given to untrusted people.

Matters are made worse when you consider that to stop abuse of banning, all voting has to be disabled, which includes kick voting and mission voting.

Is there time for a fix to this problem to be included in 1.05?

EDIT: As a workaround set your ban.txt to readonly, and add bans manually when you need them.
