Banned?

[UltraBloxX]

As of today, I can't connect to LDG #1. Whenever I try - it says that my IP is banned (Your IP address has been banned from the current game session).

I can't find myself in Bans forum, so is that UTAN? I didn't cheated neither on LDG, nor on other servers. I have dynamic IP, but when it changes, it still says I'm banned...

I'm banned forever, or something can be done?

I'll check for you, hold on.

Your IP isn't in the UTAN system, and I don't see your name in our local lists. Could you please post the first 8 characters of your GUID (NOT your CD-Key) which can be found in the Settings menu.

The ban is in UTAN.

This ban was placed on the Saints server, so you should take it up with them.

Thanks.

That's very interesting that you leave such things on someone's responsibility...
From the one side, every crazy admin can ban a fair guy globally just because of personal dislike.
From the other side, some fair admin gived a fair ban can be indulgence'able or even be changed at that server and unban a cheater after a month.
So what's the trust's weight?

UltraBloxX: Because the Admin of SAINT didn't show up on IRC yet and there is no evidence filled unlike in Marouq's case, I'm lifting this ban until I get more information.

TheDejaVuPl@yer: The UTAN bans have to be approved manually. Should there be a conflict; you can use the evidence which is filled with that ban.

Thanks!

But I still not get it. This GUID is quite large 128-bit number. Is it not unique? I.e. there can be collisions or it can be "stolen"? Because I never played on Saint Server...

Someone gets only the same GUID, if he uses your key from UT2004. Have you passed any of the Key?
