PubHostBanner's (special-host-)banlist [87 bans] [5 DL's]

Postby Monte » 03 Sep 2008, 12:45

READ CAREFULLY:
This is not a normal banlist.
This banlist lists hosts of pub games (mostly -ar or -sd) which will most likely waste your time.
Sometimes I rather join games than hosting my own. And there are a lot of really shitty hosts out there.
If you play public games on your own, this list may be very useful for you - since a lot of noobs or
banned players just host their own games and they obviously suck at it.

VERY IMPORTANT:
Do not paste the ban into the chat, just leave the game and be happy you avoided that fag.
If you tell him, that he is marked as a bad host, he will just make a new account (as usual).

This is how you can subcribe to my list:
1. Login with your banlist.nl account
2. Click on the 'Settings' tab and scroll all the way to the bottom
3. Add the banlist.nl username in the 'Download list from' input box
4. That's it!

Costum comments:
keywordcomment
badhost1WARNING: This host is a leaver ($ratio) left after dying several times [$year-$month-$day] on $realm
badhost2WARNING: This host does not do a proper pregame check (e.g. no pings, no countdown) [$year-$month-$day] on $realm
badhost3WARNING: This host (often) plays with a team of (skilled) friends vs random people (there sure will be a leaver or two when the sents are owning after 5 mins leaving you in a 5v4*) [$year-$month-$day] on $realm
badhost4WARNING: This host kicks due to location, not latency (for e.g. RU) [$year-$month-$day] on $realm
badhost5WARNING: This host is unmannered/a flamer/a racist [$year-$month-$day] on $realm


Phrases:

F7 -di + tease (actually I have a bunch of random quotes, trying to tease the host)
Code: Select all
$shiftenter-di
$shiftenterI believe either $hostname or $teal is a Céline Dion fan...

(and more)
F9 Pregame-check (needed to see if the host uses a namespoofer, has mates on his team, kicks high pings or particular countries)
Code: Select all
/whois $hostname
~
/fromall
~
/pingall

There is no proof or whatsoever (I don't save the replay for this). You just have to rely on my judging.
Still, these bans are just a hint what may occur to you in a game from this host.
You may be lucky and still try to play with or against him without something bad happening (maybe he does not get owned in that game).
The bans however are reasonable - for e.g. 'host leaving when owned' is always in a 5v4 or 4v4 situation right after he died, when he has stats like 0-4 but nothing decided yet. I'd never ban him if Scourge is 15 kills in front or has just taken down a lane and completely owns the other team.
BTW, do not underestimate custom comment 'host3' (team mates) (since most hosts are german I can say for sure from their chat,
if they belong together) - a game where the sents are all pros (maybe even together in voicechat) will not be fun for either side.
The game most likely will end 5v3 after 10 minutes, unless you are very lucky to get 5 decent players and no leavers on scourge side.

Please remember:
Do not paste the ban into the chat, just leave the game and be happy you avoided that fag.

Good Advice:
If you see a host, that uses a namespoofer, do not play with him.
You can either see it by doing a /whois on him or sometimes already by colors or not allowed characters in his name (for e.g. a space).
This stupid LC seems to have 'namespoofing fuctionality' integrated, because I lately see a lot of LC-hosts using a spoofed name.
It's just for your own safety - since first they can not be banned and second, whoever has access to one hack (a namespoofer), might also use other hacks (for e.g. drophack or maphack).

Hey, nice idea!!
I would download it, if I wouldn't host all games I play by myself.
I'm not sure if you find too many dl'ers here, because almost everyone hosts his own games, which makes this list useless to them.

Never thought of using banlist this way ^^

Greetings, Vinothek

Why do you have phrases that tease the host? :maybe:

Thanks for all your feedback!

@Vinothek
I forgot one custom comment (badhost5), it should explain why I try to tease the host a bit.
And you are right, most people here host on their own - but still some might join games too (like me).
Doesn't really matter if many people download it, I could just have used it for myself - but I thought I'd share it with you guys :p

@Fetch
The really sad thing is, since the latency check, there is absolutely no reason to kick russians or whomever... people still doing it are truly noobs or simply racists ... or maybe patriots?^^ (people hosting a ger-only or scandinavia-only game are excepted from this btw, since people already see from the gamename, what will happen to them).

@ilaggoodly
Actually, no pain.
Just 2x banlist installed and 2 shortcuts. That's all. I'm working with two monitors though (which is a blessing even if you only use one banlist (you can see latency without a phrase *g*, just looking at the other monitor) ;)

Oh:
What do you think about this custom comment:
Code: Select all
GREEN LIGHT: This host seems do to a flawless job. Proper pregame checks, mannered and reliable. [$year-$month-$day] on $realm

So to say, a positive ban. Only thing bothering me here is the sound that will be played, but I think the comment is obvious enough for people to see that it's not actually a "ban" - what do you think?

First of all, I would switch 'do' and 'to' ^^
Also a good idea, but I would rather do a safelist than 'banning' them (don't know how much work that would be)

Sounds like a plan *g*

I added a hint on the bottom of the first posting about hosts using namespoofers.
Can anyone tell me what restrictions exactly a battle.net name has?
(so uses, who do not use a whois phrase can identy a namespoof more easily).

As you said, they have to be white, no space in it, >3 chars and <15
They must not contain ALT-codes too e.g. †
That's all I know

It may have something to do with that most of the russians in bnet are people with such nicknames as 666_VEGETA_pR0_666 who enter the game and spam "go" when half of the slots are still open. Then again, there are people like that everywhere, not depending on theyre origin or so whatever. It seems to be somekind of a myth rolling all around bnet, that a game can't be a good game if there are russians in it. xD No offense, just trying to be honest... :(

_ is allowed
of . I'm not sure

EDIT: Found a site (it's in german, sorry) link

This is concerning Diablo, BUT the last line will explain, why I've chosen this anyway.

Ingame wrote:Der Bnet Account identifiziert dich im Battle.net und dient unter anderem deinen Freunden dazu, dich zu finden bzw. mit dir zu sprechen (whispern) oder dich auf die "friendlist" zu setzen. Neue Battle.net Accounts können nur noch die Buchstaben a - z, sowie die Zahlen 0-9 und die folgenden Sonderzeichen - _ . ( ) [ ] enthalten. Alle anderen Zeichen gelten als ungültig.

Diese erlaubten Sonderzeichen können nicht am Anfang des Accountnamen stehen, bitte beachten!

Mit einem erstellten Account könnt ihr sowohl im Open oder Closed Bnet spielen. Auch die anderen Blizzard Spiele könnt ihr über diesen Account spielen.


Translation (only important parts):

The allowed special characters can't be at the beginning of the accoutname, please consider!

With a created account can be played in open as well as in closed Bnet. Also the other Blizzard games can be played over that account.


This should answer your question ^^
Some1 plz explain what closed/open bnet is, thx :D

Nice idea ^^ Downloaded. Is it under the name Pubhostbanners then? Or monte? (I'll probs dl both anyway.) Something else that is worth checking for spoofers if it seems a name that would be incredibly hard to get due to popularity. I'm sure you can think of plenty of examples. If its popular, its possible it could be taken by someone else and that the host is spoofing for a better name.

u are wrong, stupid nicks has players from all contrys, usually it's kids and don't think about most of russian by some kids. i played a lot of games with ru and most of the players was mannered.

that a game can't be a good game if there are russians in it.

also wrong because if it is true russians was not be a Approved Host(axnotic) or XML Cont(MORPEH).

I don't think this is the right topic to discuss about russians (who are IMO not different than any other players. you will find stupid players everywhere).

Back to topic: I'm quite sure there are no other restrictions to the battle.net names, as I wrote already
