There are also currently 5 players with 0 score with over an hour of play time, and this is well into an active map. I can understand admins wanting to spectate the game, but this behavior can be viewed as idling to improve rank standings for the server. Two of the current idle users have 13 hours of play time. I can't imagine someone would be spectating the server for 13 hours straight. Granted, they could be jumping in and out of spectating for certain maps. But still, 13 hours of playing time while idle is a red flag. If you expect admins to constantly spectate the server you could always remove the advertising bots and switch to timed messages for advertising, then limit the spectating admins to a total of 3 to take place of the advertising bots.

You proceeded to then use an exploit to reset the rank status three times, which has resulted in a permanent ban on the IP:Port. This will not be lifted.

These 38.54.x.x servers were added to our database with different names and will cycle information when viewed through the Steam server browser, but all remotely query back to your server. Every associated server was subsequently banned. |

However, I currently see https://www.gametracker.com/server_info/91.218.66.57:9987/ listed within your current Favorite servers list on your GT profile. This could very well be the most wildest of coincidences, but that server shares the same hostname of your previous server, "SuchtBude.Live", and currently has 19 radio bots active. This is unfortunate for the owner of that server, as it now also had its ranking disabled for violation of rules, which are posted in the first post of this very thread. "- Music bots still count as bots." |

Upon reviewing your server you have 3 advertisement bots and one client that has been connected for 13 hours and has no score during a map that has been active for some time. At this time the ranking will not be reinstated. You will need to abide by the rules, which includes a maximum of 3 idle/advertising bots. |

Outside of your current 3 idle advertising bots you have multiple users with 7-12 hours of play time and no score. These would qualify as idle clients, even with a Jailbreak server. Ranking will not be reinstated at this time. Please ensure that there are no idle clients on the server. |

However, you are part of the same clan as the previous user who had claimed the server, and your clan has an alarming history of de-ranked servers. Due to these circumstances ranking will not be reinstated for this server at this time. Submit a request at a later date while maintaining compliance with the rules and we'll do another review. Also, ensuring that other servers associated with your account and clan are complaint with the rules will be a requirement. |

While this lack of score can occur due to the nature of Jailbreak servers, I currently see the server still active with too many idle users. You are allowed three idle/bot users for advertisement purposes. There are three bots active, but there is also another user with 9+ hours of play time idle on the server. You will need to ensure there are no idle users of this nature. Ranking will not be re-enabled at this time. |
