Tag evasion ban, are you serious?

[jamz]

So you warned the blacklisted players repeatedly?

It was hypothetical. I wasn't directly involved with this incident.

The ALIASED admin did not warn me once. Please notify me and I would of taken it off!

As I say, I wasn't involved. I was going by the blacklist entry:

[SELECT ALL] Code:

'legacy.Xenon' matches nickname blacklist line 167
legacy~Xenon logged in (default)
'legacy~Xenon' matches nickname blacklist line 172
legacy@Xenon logged in (default)
legacy@Xenon says: 'I BAN CANT KEEP ME DOWN

I was assuming your tag changes, and your statement, implied that you knew the reason you were being kicked/banned from the server.

When people put me on their nicklist they do it because they know they don't have a legitimate reason to blacklist me.

This is the crucial part. The tag ban is not directed at the individual players, but at the clan as a whole. It's saying, "I welcome you as a player, but I feel your clan has made questionable decisions/doesn't play fair/is a bunch of douchebags/tag spells an offensive word in Swahili/whatever". I can't blame any player for feeling a strong affinity to their clan and wanting to apply their tag at all times; I once did. But that's not the issue. My question was about players bypassing this ban by altering the tag, which was, as far as I can see, the reason for the IP ban in Xenon's case. By saying it's OK to change your tag to evade a tag ban you are effectively saying that it's OK to change your IP address to evade an IP ban. A ban is a ban, regardless of how it's effected.
