Is there a way to find out if your server has been blacklisted? I searched the forums and found many cases of Facepunch blacklisting /24 which is completely crazy, especially without scanning that range to find if any other Rust servers are operating on it.
The Server 5.196.92.36:28015 ([URL="http://www.gametracker.com/server_info/5.196.92.36:28015/"]Ranked 8th on GameTracker[/URL]) has suddenly disappeared from the server listings. (you can still connect directly)
Can someone from Facepunch find out? Very hard to troubleshoot for this kind of issue.
Thanks in advance.
This has caused a lot of problems, hard to diagnose as due to frequent patch and oxide updates today or just good old blacklisting for whatever unknown reason. Server been up nearly a month and very popular typically over 100 players.
We used [url]http://rustserverslist.net[/url] which confirms its just our server 5.196.92.36:28015 is blacklisted.
Can we get any response Facepunch? we never faked player count and were a popular server.
I'd also like to know what your process for blacklisting are, since i will be running LAN Rust servers at Multiplay I55.

I do not understand why facepunch could actually blacklist this server.. I have been playing on this server for so long and it has been one of the most legit servers I encountered on this game. I hope the problem gets solved as I want to play with my clan..
this is clearly not oxide's fault XD
the blacklist occures when a fake population is detected.

Yes we agree. It also occurs when FP decide to Blacklist for their own unknown reasons. They are judge jury and executioner. We hope for clemency and a reversal, or at least an explanation so we can avoid it happening again.

We aren't the only ones...coincidence?

Or FP went on a mass banning spree, on a bank holiday Sunday. Hi Gary. Least they're working on the game...

i actually know the algorythm used to blacklist, so yes i know it's a coincidence XD
and more then half of rust servers use Oxide ... so yeah ... if oxide made servers go blacklist ... there would be much more servers blacklisted
[editline]25th May 2015[/editline]
did you try to block your query port via firewall?
did you try to use a plugin to fake population?
those are the 2 main reasons (easy reasons) to getting blacklisted if you are a "random" server owner.
there are other reasons, that only a few hackers know how to do it and does it (but most of them are blacklisted thankfully!)

Yep, in this case there was certainly no faking of population so appears to have been manual ban by FP, awaiting their comment.
-query port is not blocked
-plugin never faked population - you can see our ranking on GameTracker and [URL="http://cache.www.gametracker.com/images/graphs/server_players.php?GSID=4843588&start=-1w&request=0039366295328363776"]historical player[/URL] count and RustIO, i can provide connection logs and any proof you want.
Looks like the blacklist algorithm doesn't work then, it would also be nice if i didn't have to go on some dodgy website to find out if the server is blacklisted in the first place. Would be nice to have something more official and someone to appeal too..
What is the reason for this server being blacklisted?
This server has been running for weeks with 100+ people playing at any one time and then (seemingly randomly) gets blacklisted for undisclosed reasons.
It's done nothing good for the community besides damage it. If you're going to blacklist a server, the least you can do is give a valid reason.
the "dodgy" website uses:
[url]http://gameapi.facepunchstudios.com/api/info/client/?game=rust[/url]
as for the algorythm, well ... i know how he uses it but i don't know the exact code ^^
i make my own checks and your server never got detected, but then,
i do checks once every week so ... XD
as for the "proof" the hackers are able to fake those numbers so it wouldn't matter what is written on gametracker or rustio.
any way, not saying that you faked ^^
but if the auto system banned you, only garry can help you.
It's a shame not to be able to play on this server at the moment! I put so much time and effort into it and had a lot of friends there, in fact, I just became respected member! If this server really is blacklisted without a reason, I demand it gets removed off the blacklist.
I've been playing on the server for a couple of weeks now and I didn't notice anything that would make them deserve to be blacklisted, if there is a valid reason however would you be so kind to share it?
Thanks?
Appears to now have been resolved. Would still be great to have comment.

Ask your host (maybe your provider is blacklisted, maybe an IP range is blacklisted)
i am the host and this has happened twice, we run oxide mod and dont fake player count. The blacklist code is simply bugged or someone needs to investigate.

This rings familiar to an EAC ban.
How do we know you're not just lying and the blacklist is accurate. Reneb gave you the reasons why it would happen previously, so unless you did something, you should not be blacklisted.
That or you're a canary in a coalmine and the coalmine is made up shitty blacklisting algorithms.
Yes i understand it's hard to believe whats on the forums, but where else am i meant to report this?
Second time this has happened and there is absolutely no reason for the ban. Even Reneb said his own blacklist script doesn't pick our server up.
How am i meant to promote Rust and run events at LANs when there is no support from facepunch for an actual serious issue? I run Oxide Mod, and Reneb says it won't be oxide... so it's the blacklist algorithm from Rust...
I play on GE all the time and it's a good server. Never seen any signs of faking players or any other reason it'd get blacklisted.
Also when it comes to Rust, facepunch support is emulating the efficiency of steam support. Don't expect a proper reply/solution anytime soon.
I mean I believe it's shit because earlier someone could not even find their local server.
Blacklisting probably a bit too sensitive.
Looks like we were removed again..

Hello guys, would like to ask, why our server - GECLAN EXTREME - 25X - TP - LIVEMAP - HIGH LOOT got blacklisted for faking population.
Like it was the most playable server on 2 different web pages and you could see it is not fake.
So I really don't understand, because thanks for blacklist we lost 150 players in anytime.
It's probably the best server. No hack, all the time admin online and everything working fine.
Hope you guys will do something about it, because I want see players back!
Good luck.
