Have I been banned?

Last Sunday for the co-op, managed to set up 4.091bm.

Last Friday (yesterday) went on to Hyperlobby, to fly Spitsv109's and I can't get on.

Realise I've left 4.09modded on, so disconnect and use the switcher to go to 4.08 standard.

Go back to Spitv109, still can't get on, try Warlcouds and can't get on, despite Control + Shift to the il2fb.exe

Next I uninstall IL-2, patch to 4.08, I'm able to fly Hyperlobby on any server apart from Warclouds & Spitv109.

I'm wondering if I've been banned?

Well, I think it´s possible that you might have been banned on Spits vs 109 ... if you´re able to join any other server on Hyperlobby it seems to be this way ...

Here´s a statement by those who are running this server ...
Faust wrote:Automatic bans are based on number of friendly aircraft and number of friendly ground objects destroyed. Automatic bans are cleared often. In most cases you should not have to wait more than 24hrs to be reinstated. If you do not get reinstated within a day or so then you should contact Joop for bans on Spits vs. 109s or me (Faust) for bans on Zekes vs. Wildcats.
If you like to get in contact to the chaps via their forum click here, Jab! :)

Good luck, m8! ^:)

Thanks very helpful Genosse, thank you.

Though I haven't had much flying for the last couple of days, Blue Screens - Zilions of them, well quite a few, but I've installed the latest chipset drivers and that seems to have done it, fingers crossed.

Hey Jab!

Nice to have you around this Sunday.

Things are a wee bit hectic in the campaigns now, but you got a taste of our "herd of cats" mentality.

Sessions are right on the border, some may say beyond the border, of moving to two TS channels because of radio traffic. Our goal is a more professional radio procedure.

...

That's our goal anyway.

>sigh>

Let us know your thoughts and impressions,

I really enjoyed it, didn't really cover myself in Glory :oops: , but it's nice to be flying with a bunch of people again.

Probably not. "Banned" is something ornithologist usually do to birds when they're (the ornithologists) are curious about migration patterns.

Going South for the Winter? ;)

It may just be that your Netspeed is set too low for their server.

Netspeed, hmm, that's an intelligent thought.

pretty sure they need it set to 10000 @ Spitsv 109s (in Hyperlobby config file)
