Sonyk hosted a server protected by the network filter. The result was: Crashed by orbitz. Sonyk downloaded peerguardian and until now he is quite safe. But as I said before orbitz might just change his ip. Also it is annoying to run about 5 tools to play jazz2 properly (networkfilter, peerguardian and more e.g. seekerholefix, pc4, gamma, respawn or other stuff). I say just ban that silly guy from the listservers and bye. As some jazzer already said: We are getting owned by a 10 years old noob and some admins dont even care. Nimrod tried to push it but he failed - though he has been making progress recently. Also not everyone will be willing to run the networkfilter or peerguardian or other tools.
Right now the network filter is still the most effective means of protecting your game servers. It's more effective than banning him from the list servers because that's not a perfect solution either.
