IP bans are useless. With technologies like NAT the IP of this player will likely change every few hours. Are you sure it is really the same IP, IP bans work.

 

Use a steam id ban instead.

I'm aware of what you are saying and agree.  The oddity was I looked in the gm channel and it showed same spelling and same exact to the decimal IP for this already banned player.  Within 24 hrs so it didn't even violate the idea of the IP bans only work for 7 days anyway test it if you don't believe.

 

I'm at a loss for words.  And people shouldn't have to mod out of the package to keep trolls out.  

 

 

If another vanilla server proves this to be not the case then the only option is there is a way around it. { The banning }

Well maybe the IP ban message is deprecated, try to shoot a manual IP ban
