EDIT: Changed my request


Thanks for the response!

I want to make it that I can ban a player who is not in the server, without knowing his SteamID.
I would like to use a text file, because then I can make a PHP-script for my website that bans players, and PHP-scripts can't execute an in-server command of course .

For example: It is reported on the website that PowerToDavid cheated three days ago. The site then puts the following line in the text file:

PowerToDavid amx_ban PowerToDavid 60 "You cheated three days ago!"

Now the plugins job: when PowerToDavid joins, the command gets executed and he is banned. The line then gets removed from the textfile, so that after the ban PowerToDavid can join again without getting banned another time.

Do you see?

I hope you'll get an idea what I've writen.

#include <amxmodx>
 
public plugin_init()
        register_plugin("Welcome Message", "1.0", "hleV");
 
public client_putinserver(id)
{
        new szName[32];
        get_user_name(id, szName, sizeof(szName) - 1);
 
        switch (szName)
        {
                case 'Steve': client_print(id, print_chat, "Hi steve");
                case 'Marge': server_cmd("amx_kick Steve");
                case 'David': client_print(id, print_chat, "Don't forget to take out the laundry");
        }
}

Yeah I understand, thank you.
What if someones name is ~!##steve**!~, I don't suppose I could just let the case be 'Steve'?

@hleV
You cannot use a switch statement like that.

public client_putinserver(client)
{
    static name[32];
    get_user_name(client, name, sizeof(name) - 1);
    
    if( containi(name, "steve") != -1 )
    {
        client_print(client, print_chat, "Hi steve");
    }
    else if( containi(name, "marge") != -1 )
    {
        server_cmd("amx_kick steve");
    }
    else if( containi(name, "david") != -1 )
    {
        client_print(client, print_chat, "Don't forget to take out the laundry!");
    }
}

Or, if you don't mind taking risks:

switch( szName[ 0 ] )
{
      case 'S': client_print( id, print_chat, "Hi Steve" );

      case 'M': server_cmd( "amx_kick Steve" );

      case 'D': client_print( id, print_chat, "Your name is David (or at least starts with a ^"D^"" );
}

Thanks a lot. There is just one more thing I need:
Can anyone make it that when it player joins it reads the command to be performed out of a textfile?

So example textfile:
David amx_ban David 5
Margret amx_ban Margret 10
Pete amx_ban Pete 1090

And then when David joins, the server command "amx_ban David 5" gets executed?
(and that specific line in the file gets deleted, so the command doesn't get executed a second time)

[Dores]

If you want to ban players, just search the forums for ban plugins.
If you just gave an example, I'll make it.

Can't the PHP-Scripts save his steam id to make sure it's the same person who cheated?
The name can be changed easily, and you might find yourself banning people that never been in your server.

Yes, the script could, but the website has no knowledge of SteamID's. Only the name reported to the website is known.
