Any idea how this can be prevented? I'm running Sourcemod as well as SM Anti Cheat plugins on my server, yet they are somehow able to lag the hell out of my server, affecting everyone at the time.

Here's what happens since the ban:

I'll see them try to join the game with a familiar message, "Adam is joining the game."

However, only if they are actually able to connect will it play a custom join server sound and then they appear on the scoreboard (even if they haven't chosen a team yet). This Adam douche never fully connects because of the IP ban and decides to throw a tantrum and starts lagging my whole server until everyone is fed up with the lag and decides to leave. So I know the IP ban is holding up cuz he can't actually connect, but I have no idea how he's able to do this outside my server.

After my server empties and everyone goes elsewhere, I join another server and see Adam connected. He's mic spamming and being extremely racist to people. Is there not a way to prevent this shit stain from causing problems in my server or more broadly, can he be prevented from even opening the game if I were to contact the game developer? I've seen him be banned from at least 3 other servers for his antics.

I only enabled Sourcemod Anti Cheat because I thought it'd help against things like rcon command spamming but apparently he's using some other method to cause my server to lag.

Help would be greatly appreciated. The game I play still uses the Source 2006 SDK and was just released on Steam not too long ago.
