Negative Strike and Player Visualization Bug

So I'm out looking at people in OE and I noticed Silverburn, the 1ic of Alpha is not visible in his alliance logs...that seems strange to me considering that, while he is on PPT, he is definitely not on vac mode.

Name: Silverburn
[ α Allegiance ]
Disciples of Lofn (cheaters)
Ancient God of the AJNA
{Temporarily on the Protected Planets Treaty...}

When I spied him, I noticed this:

Strike Action: -46,704,959,977

Now I realize I'm posting stats, but I hope this is understandable in this case...the problem might be arising from him having negative attack mercs: Mercenaries -229647 but I'm not really sure.

I just figured someone should check this out.

even if you were posting stats,
Silverburn probably appreciates the report on his bugged / auto-banned? account,

and once u starting seeing a negative in front of stat,
it starts to look irrelevant for military purposes anyway. :smt047

thanks for posting, and best of luck with this... seems to be a trend. :P

Negative strike ? Does that mean he repairs your weapons and revives your soldier when he hits you :P?

Good luck with this

I am moving this to the banned section because this is not a bug it is an autoban. If you feel this is an incorrect action please PM myself or another For Admin Mod. Thank you.

Indeed. Autobanned accounts do not disappear from the ranking, but they do disappear from attack logs, and appear on PPT. That might have caused the confusion.

I've been told they do disappear from rankings. Well... let me put it another way, instead of getting rank 0 they keep the rank they were banned at, however when going through the ranks they are not the one named at that rank. If that makes sense, although I don't have first hand knowledge of this anymore.

I have seen him on and off PPT though during this problem. How could you be autobanned but still set a PPT?
