Warnings

Manual Warnings

The warning system allows admins to design an easy to use ruleset for their server. Instead of constantly telling your guests the rules of your server, just !warn them.

For example,

In this example "camping" would be translated to the servers full length warning:

!warn PlayerName camping::

WARNING (1): PlayerName we do not allow camping on this server

!warn PlayerName exploit::

WARNING (2): PlayerName using map exploits are not allowed here

After a set number of warnings, B3 will temp-ban a player. Each warning is individually customized for the amount of time that the warning is active. When a player receives 3 warnings an alert message will be displayed. If after 30 seconds the warnings have not been cleared, the player will be temp-banned for a time relative to the warning expiration time.

The temp-ban time is based on the total number of days the individuals warnings are active for. The default setting is 1/30th of the total active time. See Admin Plugin? Configuration for setting details.

Durations

  • 1 day total warning time (86400 seconds) will result in a 48 minute temp-ban
  • 1 hour total warning time (3600 seconds) will result in a 2 minute temp-ban
  • 5 minutes total warning time (300 seconds) will result in a 10 second temp-ban
  • 3 - 1d warnings = 2.4 hour temp-ban
  • 3 - 1h warnings = 6 minute temp-ban
  • 3 - 5m warnings = 30 second temp-ban

Tip:

For a quick list of warning shortcuts, use the !warns command. To see what a warnings message is, use the !warntest command. To see how many warnings a user has, use the !warninfo command.
