Just my opinion... However in the newest version of V1 (1.6.0) the meaning of ForcePBExtreme has changed: Enforce Early PenaltyBox Extreme Blocking (ForcePBExtreme) If set and DoPenaltyExtreme is enabled, ASSP will do DoPenaltyExtreme immediately after connection. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
