[unrealghostgamer]

just looked u have death ban but isnt a 1 week ban a bit to long especially as it lagged maybe you should change it to a 30 minute ban

Sorry about the lag, it happens.. looking into it, seems the lag wasn't server-side however:

it has been running at full speed according to LagMeter/lag.log.. but granted the lag could have occurred between the samples, hard to tell. Another possibility is client-side or network-lag, I put together some steps here to investigate if you see lag again: https://github.com/mushroomhostage/exphc/wiki/Troubleshooting

As for the death ban, I see:

hardcore info unrealghostgamer15:22:49 [INFO] [Hardcore] unrealghostgamer is ready to come back. They died on Thu Apr 12 13:12:09 CDT 2012 and could come back any time after Thu Apr 12 13:17:09 CDT 2012.

so you can come back :). Its only 5 minutes, originally I lowered it to this short amount for testing purposes but am finding out ultra-short death bans work pretty well (I had it at a week originally). The timestamp may be confusing however since it is in the server's timezone instead of your local timezone..
