Has anyone noticed that the ban timer on *kill doesn't seem to expire at the designated time anymore?

*listban will show <localbanid> Timer:349 Time:300

Sorry for the lack of complete thoughts.

(btw, that php spell check is $)

Has your zone been online for a while now? It might be a signed integer, which means that at some point, the timer value compares in a negative way. So it means that you are counting backwards when comparing values.

Also, the SpellCheck button is currently broken. A previous patch to the board killed it, and I havn't had the time to look through the spellcheck addon to see why it isn't working. Nor have I put the effort into removing the button yet.

Well, yes and no, the problem occurs in Alpha, and also can be reproduced on a copy of subgame2 that I have on my machine for testing settings etc. So I get the feeling that it is a problem with subgame. Then again, I'm not terribly knowledgeable about the inner workings of the server.

*Kill is a rather outdated command. See if you can use Catid's biller, which does much more secure and reliable banning.
