I don't mind if I get KICKED, however, BANNED is far more serious because
you can't get back on the server. There should be some protocol, to be
first kicked with a reason and then banned if you continue; although, is
there honour among on-line racers?? :)) <----- NOTE THE SMILEY, although
is does make it less subtle if I have to point it out :)) (Again, note the
smiley)
