I use Windows XP. my Blockland folder is located in, C:\Program Files\Blockland
What do you mean by "my user area"? Is that a Vista thing?

Yes, it is, although it exists to a limited extent on XP. (XP: C:/Documents And Settings/whoever, Vista: C:/Users/whoever)

Do you have administrator privileges on your computer? (I think you do, since you were able to install Blockland or whatever, but I can't think of a reason for the ban list breaking)

Also, it's possible that you have a broken client-side Add-On, which automatically runs when you start the game and isn't disabled in the Add-Ons menu.

EDIT: What is the 'Self Damage' option in minigames supposed to do? Even when I've disabled it, I can still damage myself by firing rockets at my feet and when it's enabled, firing a gun then warping into its firing line doesn't hurt me.

Ive moved my whole Blockland folder into C:\Documents and Settings\Myname
I do have administration rights too. Ive tested it again but it still clears my ban list when I shut down the server.

How can I find out if a addon is running when I start Blockland should I find out by using my Windows Task Manager?

On vista, if blockland is not run in admin mode (admin mode breaks blockland for steam), then everything from saves to screenshots to a secret ares I am unable to find (this is a security feature), anyone know where it is?

Again, this does not happen in the default game. 

Works fine in default game.

Bug rotondo about that.

these three i get, and v10 messed up the zombie mod, which caused the other two, so zombie mod needs to be updated

go to start a game.
click on "add-ons"
click on the checkbox of all non-default add-ons that are checked
you have just disabled all add-ons not made by badspot, and so it should work

Emitter Glitch.

Setting the amount of emiiters too high (such as 9999999999), will result in not being able to use emitters

Um, don't then. It's an engine limitation with the way numbers are handled, going above a certain amount will act like it's zero.

No, all Add-Ons are run through Blockland.exe and don't show up as separate processes.

Try this: Move all the folders in Add-Ons to a separate folder. Run the game. Start a server and test banning someone. Close the game and see whether the ban list is there/still works/etc. You can copy them back later.

I thought it just removed the files when you ended the game or something. It might be in one of those hidden system folders which Microsoft has decided you're not worthy of seeing, no matter how many "Show Hidden System Files" options you use.

Why are you running Blockland through Steam, anyway, if it breaks things?

If you have Vista your Blockland folder should be directly in C:\ and not in the Program Files folder.

Would there be a problem if I put my Blockland directory in the program files?

I moved only the folders that were in my Add-Ons folder. I didn't move any of the zip's. I tried it once again but did not work. Would you like me to post the console? Thanks for all the help so far.

Move the zip files as well, they're your actual installed Add-Ons. A console log might help, too.

This is no bug, but the vehicle collision is very bad with bricks.

You may get permission errors with files where your add-ons become read-only. This will only really cause notable problems if you use RTB in which case you won't be able to update add-ons or RTB in some cases, and you wont be able to find the add-ons you download through RTB in your add-ons folder.

this is small, but whenever im on zero2's server and zero has one of his monstrous builds about 5 sec. after i spawn it(blockland) crashes.
