I have one bug report of someone with a WOL server and SSAOW 1.4 (i.e. bhs.dll 2.2.2) where the nickname fix prints out the "Player with invalid nickname blocked" message but doesnt actually kick them from the server.

Can anyone else provide any evidence on this? (Does it work? Does it fail?)

They did not get kicked and we were running 1.4 with the latest bhs.dll.

EDIT: I relised we didn't have the bandtest.dll with the nickname fix in it Huh

You dont need the bandtest.dll with the nickname fixes if you are using SSAOW 1.4 (which includes scripts.dll 2.2.2).
When I have some time, I will see just whats going on with the nickname fixes. Is this server running WOL or GSA? Windows or Linux?

Windows with WOLSPY but I think the first occasion was when we were only on WOL (XWIS)

When people ask me "Plz" just because it's shorter than "Please" I feel perfectly justified to answer "No" because it's shorter then "Yes"

I've tried this with both SK's fix and new SSAOW 1.4 and without SK's fix.

Basically you can still take over nicks that are already in the server.

It goes like this on IRC:
Player ImGood joined the game
(hacker) Player ImGood joined the game
Player Imgood left the game

You see the hacker JOIN, so you see the same nick join twice, and if the hacker leaves, the other guy is still in the server but invisible.
