this isn't related to the mob server at all, but since you're very knowledgeable about this kinda stuff I'm hoping someone can help me out.

I was playing on the FoF server (i think they run CI serverside but no miss.) and 2 obvious hackers came in and were crashing the server etc.

The admin tried to kick/ban but it didn't work! They were still on the server and crashing it at will.

Is there any way to get rid of them cos they're spoiling what was a good game?

many thanks and apologies for taking up mob bandwidth over a non mob problem

It depend on how the guy was trying to kick them.
Some of the function in CI send a command to the client computer telling the computer to disconnect from the game, this can easily be bypassed.
The other way send a command to the server telling the server to drop the connection for that player, this way can't be bypassed.

The banning in MOHAA doesn't mean a lot because it only works by the players IP.
With DSL rebooting your modem will get you a new IP. With cable their is a little more to it depending on who your provider is and how long they lease IP's

Not a word was spoken to contradict or disagree with S@bot when he called me a....
bully, dictator, snide, hypocrite, arrogant, smartass and lets not forget,
according to him the way I act is reprehensible.
Yet, you're going to censor my signature because it's inappropriate and might hurt his little feelings???
Sorry. don't think so
