Please be specific about what type of ban, and weather it is KAC related.
KAC bans are not generally overturned unless it was during a blackout period.

Providing the STEAM ID might be helpful.

I mean, when someone gets banned from kac, he gets a permanent ban, Id like to change it to like 1 day. I hope this made it clear.

That is not possible as they are cheating.
However you can remove CVAR's that KAC checks for.

Here is the list of commands.

1. kac_addcvar <cvar name> <comparison type> <action> <value> <value2 if bound>
2. kac_removecvar <cvar name>
3. kac_addcmd <command name> <ban (1 or 0)>
4. kac_removecmd <command name>



for example ... kac_removecvar mat_dxlevel

I think you dont get my point. I do not want to remove any CVARS whatsoever, I just want to change the time/duration of all bans so that they are not permanent.
Cheers.

if u mean bans for cheating, its not possible due to the kac master ban list,
means when someone is caught cheating on one server that persons steamid,
is automatically banned on all kac protected servers. if it was that u meant?

Since I hate people being misinformed:

 	GetTrieString(g_hCLang[client], trans, f_sEReason, sizeof(f_sEReason));
 	VFormat(f_sBuffer, sizeof(f_sBuffer), format, 5);
I won't provide any help in using that though, it's not a great idea, will be completely unsupported and will be overwritten on updates.

Btw twozcar, only a few certain servers can add to the master list, not any server.

Well that would be a modified version of KAC,
and I believe it's Kigan's intention to not support modified versions.
Not a point of misinformation, just of support.
I'm sure he will provide his own feedback regarding modification.

So i guess sure have at it on your own server.

I think he is referring to local bans that kac does on his server. Not the global ban list.
