Hello,


I can't use q3fill in some servers. You can see error message in image.

What i will do to use q3fill always?



Thanks

there is no solution or work-around to this problem at the moment

always?
if ur banned u cant use it
apparently, if ur ping is too high nothing can connect
if its passworded u cant connect
if it has a mod, and u dont know the way through the mod, u cant connect

Always.

No one can ban me , beacuse i can change my IP.

I can't use fake_player_bug to some servers. Like this : 89.19.3.68:29070 (on the picture)

I have very good ping on this server (like 25-30) , beacuse its in to my country. And i am not writing reconnect or rate commands connecting to server. Beacuse i not need them.

But i can't use fake players, beacuse my ping is too high (??? wtf =_=) Why i can see this message , my ping is very good for on my attacks ..




If ping is too low , maybe server command to 5-10 ping to low ? It's a tactic for fake players?

the ping thing is still not clear, the q3 protocol is very simple so the only thing about I can think is the lack of one or more game specific parameters in the "connect" string... but doesn't convince me.

then please don't post the IP addresses of servers otherwise I can't help you or do hypothesis about a problem, I'm not interested to what you want to test moreover if the server is not yours.

anyone can easily change their ip, just usually ur internet wont work >_<

I don't think he's talking about changing the IP of your network adapter. He's most likely doing common tricks to change your IP:

Cable ISPs: change the mac of the CPE device and reset the modem
DSL ISPs: reset the modem

As for changing your IP, it's nice until they notice multiple banned IP addresses that look alike. Then they just block your entire subnet, or contact your ISP and explain what you're doing.

Anyways, that message is too vague to really determine what causes it. I would start taking notes of what servers do this. Find out what mods they run, what your ping is to them, etc. Basically, write down any information that can help. Then compare/contrast the data with servers that work fine for you, and see what it might be.

i get no response from that server at all...



not gonna happen :) trust me, i know.

Blocking out a subnet?...it can happen, and it does. I used to talk to a guy that ran a BF2 Demo server that managed bans like this for people who kept coming back (since banning in the demo is flawed because you can use whatever cd-key you wish, there is no check. most demo mods ban by this randomly generated cd key). All it takes is a whois of the IP to find out the range it's in, and then a simple iptables command (if you're on linux) to block out the subnet.

Example: iptables -A INPUT -s 12.13.14.0/24 -j DROP

...will drop everything in 12.13.14.*. If you have access at the firewall level you can also use something like an access list: access-list 10 deny ip 12.13.14.0 0.0.0.255

As for contacting the ISP... well your ISP probably isn't going to do anything except maybe send a letter to you... since you're their customer :P. But they definitely can turn off your service if you're causing a denial of service (flooding servers is a denial of service, because you are denying service to legitimate users). I can guarantee that it violates their TOS.

problem solved in version 0.4.3a, that LOW_PING message is a check used in JA+

But if the admin is smart, he will be doing a whois on each IP you connect with to found out all the different blocks you're in, and ban them all as he needs. Eventually, he will get all of the ones owned by your ISP, since your ISP doesn't own them all :P.

But if you were just banned once, and you connect in a different block and don't cause problems, yea they probably wont notice, and wont ban you again.
