roll back effects on banned users

Will banned users have to wait longer for their two week ban to be lifted?

eg Les is meant to come of at 11.13pm Friday (his time), will he still come of then or have to wait a further 5 days?

I'm sure if you PM one of the admins after that allocated time with proof they will gladly lift the ban :-)

Re: roll back effects on banned users

To be honest I don't think it will have any affect on the ban. I don't think the system counts 14 days and if it's rolled back it would start counting again. Look at the date on the forum, it is the 16th. If his ban is to finish on the 16th then it will finish on the 16th regardless of whether there was a roll back. At least that is my understanding.

But of course the admins would likely lift the ban if this turned out to not be the case. Again this could have easily been a simple PM to the admins to bring up the point.

Re: roll back effects on banned users

We see no reason to modify any/all current forum bans to take into account the server issues. They will progress normally, ending exactly two weeks after the point when a GM/admin banned them.
Now if someone somehow had twisted the space-time continuum so that a single week went mon-tue-thu-fri-sat-sun rather than mon-tue-wed-thu-fri-sat-sun without forums and such taking that into account, we would have had to modify bans.

Re: roll back effects on banned users

Its exactly 2 weeks counted from the time of the ban. A forum roll-back only affects data created after the "roll-back time". The server time will always be the current time and the ban is counted using that.
