I just upgraded sphere versions, and it seems when i log-out say and try to login again right away, sphere bans my account. auto ban. and i cant un ban it? how can i unban my account...

also what gives, why is this even happening.

Probably your ping tries or socket connects? Sphere will autoban accounts for certain actions (Controllable in the INI).

Just type ACCOUNT Account_name Block 0 in console. This should work. Or something similar.

And are you on 55i, 56b, or 56c? Because I see you posting in both 55I and the newer versions forums. Whichever version you are using, stick to those forums please. Depending on you sphere version, different scripting is needed to help you in the future. 55I doesn't handle half the code 56 series does. Nor does 56 handle some of the old deprecated structures of 55I the same anymore either. locals and tags replaced vars is a huge difference. Then the syntax from one to the other.

Just please keep this in mind. Plus errors on one might not be the same on the other. The thread you posted in down there is actually an old issue due to people not waiting long enough between logins. Their socket never disconnected before trying to reconnect from a new one. Rarely this happened when they were never logged in, it didn't ban an account, but I remember it not causing a proper login. If you are on 55I, I am sorry, I do not remember the fix to that without plopping in a 55i server and recreating your issue.

If this is on 56b, I am sure you are running into close to the same issue. The controls on sockets/pings are in the INI. Though, I am sure it is your logout. You are not getting completely disconnected from your server it seems like. Could be wrong, but you are giving us very limited information.

Okay. So what custom scripts are you running? Does it happen to anyone else? Is it just you? I mean, we need more details. "I get banned on login" doesn't give me a single clue on your server version, your INI settings, custom scripts. Is it happening to others or just you. Cannot help a user without details.

thanks khaos, i believe it is now fixed... i changed a few things in the ini. i will keep you posted if this continues. its the latest 56b release. it was just happening to my admin account. cheers.

yeah okay so it isn't fixed. i logged out because i needed to test an on=@login script, and it bans me when i try to re enter, and i didnt rush it... just closed the client, waited a bit and it bans me when i try to re enter

This happens now tho

Resync complete!
23:08:ERROR:Connection from 127.0.0.1 rejected. (MAXPINGS reached 27/25)

Raise your maxpings, but I don't understand why you are having 27 pings from your host pc. Is this normal for you? Raise the MAXPINGS to 30 or something. Seems like you are having issues communicating with your own local host.

If this persists, try restarting your computer. Sometimes my local host won't let me even launch a server as the host port seems to act up when I have run the server. Windows 10 doesn't seem to like to always clear it from the memory. Could be another solution to get into daily habits of restarting your PC/Laptop.

Also, in hindsight, there is a way to clear the server memory if I remember right. Maybe you could call this function from time to time. Though I would not do it a lot. Without looking through the Hard Code, I am not sure WHAT all it is cleaning. Maybe if Xun (or whoever added it) sees this he/they/she can add some additional information as well.
