<div class="IPBDescription">Just an FYI</div> I know its simple and most of you probably know already but for those that may not:
If you run multiple servers and would like to occasionally merge your banned.cfg files, all you need to do is create 1 file with all the wonids, load it on one server, in console type
exec banned.cfg
writeid
voila. The server will automagically pull in all the wonids, remove the duplicates then write them back to the file (with writeid). You can then copy this file to your other servers. Make sure if the server is running, to run exec banned.cfg and writeid on each one or when the map changes, the server will overwrite your new banned.cfg with the one currently in memory.
