First, Bev and I were wondering about aWhiiteeKiid's ban (unsure about the exact account name spelling), as we didn't recall implementing it. We unbanned him as a result during our time in the server today during a conversation with his faction members, but tonight Bev noticed a post in the thread about him being one of the members to send out the DDOS threats. We were wondering if it was you who banned him, and if it was for that? If so, we'll re-enact the ban, citing your word.
I did ban the guy; I searched the logs for any reference to people threatening to DDoS the server, and among them saw these:
2011-06-24 17:42:17 [INFO] [Shout] <*Mercenary aWhiiteeKiid> LEAVE MERCS ALONE OR FACE DDOS
2011-06-24 17:42:31 [INFO] [Shout] <*Kiel mcbeverage101> Threatening a DDOS is worth an entire faction ban fyi
2011-06-24 17:57:06 [INFO] [PLAYER_COMMAND] aWhiiteeKiid: /msg apocalypse922 lol. server is getting DDoS'd.
Anyone who threatens the server with a DDoS should be banned.
