Can I just ask where the confusion came from? There was nothing mentioning a ban when you were removed from the server, it very specifically said you were 'auto-kicked for ping masking'. That message alone gave you all the information you needed. All you had to do at that point (if you didn't know what ping masking was) was to do a quick web-search for "tf2 how to remove ping mask" and find a suitable solution.

Like, there's nothing inherently wrong with posting here on the forums instead, but it just seems to me like searching up a solution first would have been less effort.

Yeah, I get what you mean Star, and I did do a few searches, it's just that the solution the sites I was looking to only had me show what my actual ping is to myself.

I think the command was something like Netgraph 1.

And for asking if I'm banned...

Well, I've never been banned before, I don't have a clue what popup appears.  Especially when in other games (Chivalry, Rust, etc.) it comes up with random errors for kicks and bans.

Guess I should've Googled harder

and Bronte?

cl_cmdrate 66 in console should fix this problem

Ping masking is caused from setting cl_cmdrate to +100 to hide your actual ping

Thanks for the quick response! It's working now.

[RESOLVED]  Recently, I've tried to get back onto the Phantom gaming servers (I was away for awhile with school and a vacation), and I've been unable to join the Saxton Hale server (IP 203.33.121.29:27016)

I've succeeded in getting onto other servers owned by Phantom, such as the Dodgeball server.  But every time I've attempted to join the VSH server, it comes up with the error, "Auto-Kicked for Ping Masking.

I don't understand why it only applies to just that server.  Am I banned or something?

Please help!

Hello, Phantom

My name is Goliath and I would like to be a moderator on your Dodgeball server.  I am currently turning 15 in about 2 weeks time and I am a very frequent visitor of your servers. I spend a large percentage of my time on your servers talking and having fun with your mods and players and I feel that it is necessary to ensure that the rules you have placed on the server are being properly followed.  I do not have any previous history as an admin or mod but I have a clear understanding of the parameters and commands that I have available and that I have to follow.

I hope to bring a lot of fun to your servers!

Goliath

declined, poor application and you did not follow the template 

Can I try again?  Or is that it?

I play daily (Past 4:00pm on weekdays)

I want to be admin so the server doesn't need to suffer from people who mic spam and trash talk.  I want to make the gaming experience for the 'patrons' more enjoyable.

I have a microphone and I use it very consistently.

I do not know the Admin commands, I have never been one.
 

I have read and understand the rules of an administrator and the commands.

Thank you for reading.

More items to buy in the store! 

Err, pointshop I mean..

Also, can you make the ping kick a little less violent?  Like warnings or something?  I get really bad ping spikes and it costs me hale.

Well, that and a AFK kick.  (If It exists can you make it more violent?)

Dear Phantom,

                        For Smissmas, I want more c*** to buy in the store, maybe sound effects or weapon/hat effects!

Over the past 4 or so days (1/02/15 - 5/02/15)  A fair few trash talkers and mic spammers have been on the server.  Along with a fair few people delaying.

I'd appreciate if admin visits were a little more frequent...  Because VIPs like Lov Cows is having to play moderator.

Let's hope that they optimise it then!

In a matter of 11 or so days, the game Evolve, will come out!  I can't wait as it's my first next gen game that I've bought.  Has anyone else got the intent to buy the game?  Cause I'd love to have someone to hunt with
