You're welcome!

There is just one server and two gametypes to be hosted, that's why a scheduling was instigated, based on the priority of the gametype. Since 0aug got a higher priority, it's hosted approx 70% of the time.
Apart of that, I'm just controlling Altfire. [FGS]Chin.Democ is in charge according to maintaining the 0aug server.

One day, you will be banned for that.

Indeed, according to ONE name.

I almost always play with the same name and don't get aliased either.

Ye, until you started using a million names.

Such as there is no real use of a dynamic name.

You are right, there is no 100% accurate way to prevent it.
That's why this needs to start in the minds of the players first. Obviously didn't start in yours yet.

- How are we supposed to get new players to DXMP if they can't join servers or they have to register somewhere?
If such a system were to be created, it would be more like the other way around. Names are allowed except chosen ones, which need to be authorized.
