Last week I started to have problems getting on the UT2004 DeathMatch servers(no problem getting into the other games but I like Deathmatch), I kept getting a "Your IP Address has been banned on this Server" message" but after a couple attempts I'd get in and play, today couldn't get in at all... Is this some kind of glitch?? I have no idea why I would have been banned? I don't cheat, I wouldn't know how and wouldn't if I did, if there's someway my record can be access you'll see I never win, if I kill half as many as I've been killed I had a good game lol... I've playing UT2004 for years and never had a problem, not to mention I get my butt kicked every game lol but I don't play to win, I just love the game.. Can someone please check and see what's up with my ip address being banned?? Thank YOu all in advance.. Paul T (aka on UT2004 "Unfriendly Fire")

Hi,

Ive just checked both DM servers webadmin and your ip is'nt banned on either.
also checked UTAN not banned on there either.

right we need a bit more info to dig into this properly .. is the ip you posted with the same as the one you join the server with?

what ingame names do you use as so far i cant find any record of your ip, forums name or "unfriendly fire"

Thanks for the fast reply oxy!! My UT2004 Deathmatch online name I have been going by "unfriendlyfire" for months now (I'm sorry I think I seperated the two words in my first post, just checked my name within UT2004 and I actually have it as one word "unfriendlyfire"). I used to go my the screen name Pinger but that name was lame and thought "you were killed by unfriendlyfire" was funnier. We (my family) only have this one ip address for all our online computer usage. I only play UT2004 Deathmatch. Not sure if it matters but I'm in the US. Thank You again for helping..
