Nexuiz/SVN can now kickban. It is already enabled on RBI:

On RBI, masters can now kickban using "vdo kickban #3", where the number is from status. Also, kick now also works without a space before the number, and both commands would show who is going to get kicked/banned in the voting yes/no screen.

A kickban kicks the player and bans his /24 network for 90 minutes.

What was the old method?
Add ip addresses to the net_kickban list or something?

There is no old method.
With 2.3, you can either kick or ban permanently (net_banlist), but there is no kickban.

Yes, the old method was using net_banlist. I now consider net_banlist obsolete. Using net_banlist was not votable and would have been too easy to abuse.

especially with dynamic IPs these days... just reset your router...

Well, you usually stay in the same /24 network or in a small selection of them

For example, I only was in five of these /24 networks in the last year (T-Online). Still, that can ban innocent people... but it's time limited.

Excellent; just the intermediate required to deal with the people who constantly rejoin after being kicked.

P.S. I was planning to start a topic on the need for a kickban a few days ago...
