That's why JunkBuster SprunkBuster died I guess...a lot of false bans, only a few servers who could add bans, ...

It is closed source, like the original post said...which means Infinity himself makes an anti-cheat script, uneditable by the server owners who use it. Other, "regular" bans will not be recorded by the system, thus preventing abuse.

Yet another reason why JunkBuster failed, no anti-hack system included. It used to ban a lot of players in the original Mini-Missions because of a bugged money hack system. And almost nobody got an unban because the owner left sa:mp and you know Woet, he only takes formal information...The head-admin got banned and had to beg for an unban because the owner didn't "confirm there's a bug", although everyone knew it. Anyhow that's another story

Basically ^what I said

Well, now I started thinking about it, I'm thinking more and more of this idea failing a lot. Not because of you, but because we're humans. People, server owners, will have to trust every ban made by the system. Their player count decreases (slightly) because some people hack on other, concurrential servers. Or imagine (this actually did happen before) an admin of your server hacking onto another server, suddenly being unable to join his own server. I just think people won't like the idea of less players because there are hackers on another server.

^what the original post said.
