[SOLVED] Redundant ban message when not hosting a game
Posted: Sat Jul 09, 2016 2:19 pm
If you're hosting a dedicated server, you can play by accessing it from the list of servers without the game registering you as the host. That means no host command such as /ie or /setstartitems should work for you in chat. Yet for some reason you are still able to "ban" other players by inputting a /ban command, without them getting kicked or actually banned from the server. The notification is still displayed as if they've just been banned.
Here's a preview (was too big for actual image embedding, sorry):

Perhaps this is possible without you even being a host of a server. I remember "banning" a friend who was hosting a server from his own lobby, and then not being able to enter the server again since it was "on my ban list". It's weird that it kinda works both ways - a host can ban an unwanted player, but a player can also ban... an unwanted host? I'm not sure if this is intended.
