/* Notes */
This plugin was written to enable server admins to enforce a maximum ping that players can have. It takes the players cmdrate and the servers tickrate into account when doing this. It will not check players who are currently connecting or are not on a team.
Server Config Information:
http://forums.srcds.com/viewtopic/1094 -- Thanks to |GsX| GrimReaper for finding that article.
This plugin has been compiled and tested on both non-orange box and the orange box servers, and requires SM 1.0.x or 1.1.x. Those can be downloaded at:

Thanks to BAILOPAN, k41m, Tsunami, Teame06, and EKS for their help in this.

- Added tracking cvar.
- Removed the extension and ported to native SourceMod
- Reconfigured kick messages to show current ping and max ping.
2.1

2.9
- Fixed a bug in the code that handles checking and then kicking players. Thanks for finding this Flyflo.
