Agreed. Would be much easier as you mention than stopping the server and adding IP's to the ban list. Especially those of use away and remote logging in to check status.

That would be nice for the remote access, you can ban a player while active on a node without stoping the server, right click on the players node and select ban, this works if you have direct access to the twgs, but if you have to ban a player and he isn't online then you have to shut the twgs down. bummer

yeah you can do all those things with direct access to the server, but i'd like to write some code that auto-boots and bans people when they dupe. right now, the best i can do is record it or notify someone. if it was on the RCM, i could write code to log in to the admin account and deal with the problem right there.

That would be really, really nice. If it happens, it would be even nicer if the code you wrote was shared. [:D]
