The users can then directly reconnect and play again. What other plugins are you running? Becasue this never happens on my server. Maybe your problem will be solved with the 4.2 version that I will post soon. In that version I have prepared special debug to see if players get wrongly kicked. I use a CVAR to enable that amxbans_debug which can be 0 or 1 And prints to amx logs whenever a player is kicked by amxbans. Just post your plugins.ini and we can maybe see what could be the cause of your problem.

This kinda messages are showing up in the console @ map start:

L 10/10/2005 - 087:41: Kick: "NeoK<246><STEAM_0:0659103><>" was kicked by "Console" (message ""You are BANNED. Check your console for info."")
L 10/10/2005 - 087:43: World triggered "Round_Start"

I'll soon post the new amxbans version 4.2 where you can enable debug to see if a player get falsely kicked. All players that get kicked by AMXbans will get logged into the amxx logs. You need to have the new CVAR amxbans_debug set to 1.
Hopefully the new version will come sometime this week. I just put in the last change and want to test it a few days before I release.

Hopefully I will create a new plugin thread for the 4.2 version

Another suggestion;

Option to manualy set the desired time to follow, i.e UTC, PST etc.. as many webservers are not hosted in the same country as the cs server or the times are way out of sync to the actually time the server made the bans.

I have done an option in the config pages so you can set the timediff between the webserver and the gamserver in hours.
The ban list works with that option now, but maybe some other page need to work with it to.
It's late now and gonna check the rest later.

Another weird thing.
Our tier2 admins (flags bcdeiju) get the following messages when trying to make a perma ban, or a ban longer then 600 min.
You are not allowed to ban Permanently in console
You are not allowed to ban more than 600 min in console

Whats this all about? Our tier3 admins, all flags, can ban just fine from console.

Give them the n-flag also if you want them to be able to ban more that 600 minutes. Admins with d and n-flag will have full powers to ban.

In the new 4.2 version this will be easy to configure so you dont have to give the the n-flag if you dont want to.

before they never needed the N flag :/

I'm sorry for that, but as I said it will be easy to change that in the next 4.2 version.
