Oh, thanks, I am still on 1.5. I guess I need to specify 1.5 or 1.6 in all post from now on.
I think I will wait about 1 year for the 1.6 "Beta" to be over...
I am SERIOUS.

EXACTLY, what I was trying to describe in my first post.

Exactly why I was posting this question. I have already consider / tested / and tried out most of what was mentioned here before posting, HOPING I would not have to kludge it like this..
What I have settled on trying last is tracking the clients in client connect and setting a certain amount of time for them to connect. I then will use the number of humans on now + number connecting to determine if they will be allowed on. I don't like kicking people it tends to anger most people. But I am still going to do this as a double check to keep the limit what I want.

All I know about is sending the clients a message on their screen. Do you have an example of how I would send a console message to a specific client before kicking them?
Thanks everyone for the help.
I will post the source to this plug in when finished.
