Ok, Im after a plugin that will query our local Sourcebans installation (using the database already defined in our database.cfg file) when a player connects, I want it to check (using the STEAM ID of the player connecting) if the player has a previous ban. For each previous ban matching that steam ID, I want a message to be sent to admins on the server in the following format:

"<PLAYERNAME> (<STEAMID>) has a previous ban for <REASON> which lasted X <minutes/hours/days/months/years>"


Reply here or PM me if interested. This is a really simple plugin (Connect to DB, On player connect query the steam ID, If number results >0 then loop a message to all the admins on the server.)

Do you really want it to send a message for EVERY ban? Imagine a player with 5 bans joining, then one with 3 and one with like 6 that would be 14 Messages

Well i could make it after my current project =)

I would prefer a join message like this:

<Playername> (<SteamID> was already banned <X Times>

This would we less annoyin and still usefull.. maybe make a command like 'sm_listbans <User>' to see details?

Perhaps "<PlayerName> has <COUNT> previous bans, type sm_listbans <Playername> to see a full list"

The full list would then echo out my format above?

Yes something like that.. but as i said im currently working on something else for someone and will then maybe do yours. Whats the commission btw?

@Death [GER]

I know alot of admins that would love a plugin like this. I would appreciate you releasing it for general use. Adding wildcards to let ops customize their messages would be icing on the cake(even if the cake is a lie). Something like:
{STEAM}
{PLAYERNAME}
{BANAMOUNT)
(BANTIME)
{BANREASON}

Well if thats true then i may think about doing it.. But well im still working on some projects before..

Im ok with it being released publicly, after I get a copy and can test it

I made a simple version of this that I will post once tested.

Upon a player joining, admins are alerted with a message akin to "Warning: Player "Name Here" has X previous SB bans on record" if X > 0.

Admins, at any time, including after the message has printed, can type a command to list the bans for any player currently in the server. Output goes to console in a format like:

Listing bans for PlayerName
Ban Date    Banned By     Length      End Date    R  Reason
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So then release it =)

*bit less work for me*
