      Advertising Bans
      As of current time, players are banned for 30d for advertising on our server. I believe advertising bans should be PERMANENT. Why allow players trying to promote their servers on ours and us risking players? Also, I believe we should create an auto-ban for attempting to say known server IPs.

      Many advertisers are bots, meaning it may be necessary for perm IP bans on advertising bans. This will lower counts of advertising, and the advertisers can't come back to advertise more.

      Constructive criticism is greatly appreciated. Please leave your opinions on this thread.

      The whole reason that we lowered ban lengths was to keep playercount, this would do the exact opposite. Also, an auto ban feature would only ban known ips, and as you said most advertisers are bots that promote their own servers so that would be absolutely pointless. Ip bans rarely happen anyways, and I’d rather not anyone have that happen.

      Also seeing as you supported the thread on allowing ban evading, aren’t you just going back on yourself?

      No support.

      I think this shouldn’t be a thing if somebody said a server name besides MV and get banned? This would lose quite an amount of players.

      You only get banned for advertising if you mention a server ip, just mentioning the name can result in a warning.

      No support, I believe players should get a second chance, we already ban them for a month so even if they do come back and advertise it won't be as often.

      As for the ip bans, people could have brothers and sisters and such, most people also use vpns.
