I am speachless .... inform yourself a little please. fopen / fwrite are teh default methods to open / write to fles, there is no other way actually, at leas tnow ithout using a plugin. So y_ini doesn't do anything else. Anyways, i generally would recommend SQLLite / MySQL. Not just for a ban system, but for your whole system, because otherwise its overkill
