@ -6,7 +6,7 @@ This mod is based on the concepts introduced by xban2, and expands on them
|

by using an sql database instead of a serialised table file. This approach to

ban management:
|
||||
|

* Offers API access to useful functions
|

* Offers API access to core functions that can be disabled if reqd

* Grants an enhanced view of player accounts and ban records.

* Provides tiered access to player record information.
