Just create a user name ban for any user name containing "-".

what do you mean by that? am i going to ban that guy automatically?

Create a new ban, Choose Regular expression and then add .*-.* in the filed for nickname.
This bans and rejects every user with - in their nickname.

Nickname ban means, that banned users can change their nickname, to reconnect.

So this is the only way to do this? and would they receive a notice that they need to change their nickname after they got banned or rejected from the server?

They receive the notice YOU entered while creating the ban.

Hello,

Sorry, I am sure this has been answered before. I have searched through 10-20 old threads to get the general feel/idea of how these bans work, but I just want a little clarification.

Let's say that I wanted to ban the word "meow" from a persons name. I would start with: .*[Me][Ee][Oo][Ww].*

Does this stop variations people would inevitably use to try get around the ban such as
m e o w
m_e_o_w
m.e.o.w
etc etc
The usage of other special characters or regular characters. This might also ban legitimate names such as MEn Of War. However I would only use it for longer words so that this wouldn't be an issue.

I appreciate any help, and again sorry if this could be found in an old thread, but I did try looking first!
Thanks!

Hey, i want to get rid of people with special chars in their names on my server. For example "TestUser ♥".

I tried some regex'es i found on google like:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/...acters-in-unix
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/...cii-characters
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/...ers-with-regex

The method that should work seems like:

.*[^\x00-\x7F].*

but it does not filter anything.

Try this from my example (allows Aa-Zz ,0-9, !, #)

.*[^A-Za-z0-9!#\s]+

Hey guys !
Is there any way I can restrict ppl with this random TeamSpeakUser name from entering my server ?
So to enter it, they would have to take something other than this.

I'm kinda new here so mods please have mercy on me ._.


Thanks in advance !

[dante696]

Put TeamSpeakUser.* into the banlist while Regular Expression was selected.

This will reject the exact nickname TeamSpeakUser and all other followed chars.

How do I restrict people having usernames such as: "[Admin] Username123" or "[VIP] Username123" etc?

ban the phrase you don't want anyone being able to use from appearing in the username using wildcard or regular expression bans on the name.
