Orbitz was banned before he got a list ban from jazz.nimrod-online.com, he is also going to be banned well after his list ban.
Monolith, Fquist and many others are fully aware of this. He received a Digiex ban a long time before he received a network ban. He totally attacked my jj2 servers when I use to host them (until myself and Overlord made protection), and for that he has been banned from any resource at Digiex, and that includes the list which we host.
It hardly stops him from playing JJ2 if he really wanted, the whole idea of the list server's is to have a network. Not once have I stopped Madskills from having access to my list to mirror it, and for that Orbitz could play JJ2 if he wanted. He merely couldnt join my jj2 game server, or take advantage of a slighty faster list (closer to him).
I'm not going to spend hours finding a new way to ban Orbitz at my router which will allow him to access the list but nothing else, I actually like to protect my resources and won't spend hours of my own time trying to ensure one little kid who doesnt deserve anything can access my list, something that costs ME money to run.
A side effect of his behaviour meant he cant access my list, well fair enough, but due to my willingness to make the network open he isnt blocked from playing JJ2 as he can simply use Madskills.
So honest to god (mainly aimed at Link) if you call it power abuse that I like to protect my resources from someone who openly abuses them, I seriously urge you to provide a (-) good reason for this . At the end of the day, it costs me as it is, to run the List Server and its me who picks up its entire bill.
