So, i was playing an obs game about a month ago and i got kicked. i guess, because i got a black screen that says nothing on it. Now every-time I spawn i get the black screen. I thought i got banned but I'm  not on the ban list. i can stay a spectator but cant play. What's wrong?

Next time it occurs press shift and ~ and view the extended console and see what it says at the bottom when you get kicked. I'm assuming this is for Obscurity also, as you have posted this in the HitLoc section.

That would be a temporary ban from that server only then. You will need to contact an admin of the server and find out why you were banned, if they can unban you or how long the ban will last for.

Some 2 minute bans occur on occasion for PB issues or IP conflicts I believe, but you usually have access again after 5 minutes or so. Your best bet is to contact the server admin for the details on your ban, as they should have access to the log files etc.

If you cannot play in any Obscurity servers, then you have somehow managed to become Melon banned via using hacks or tk'ing.

If PB can't initialise, you usually get kicked from the server when you kill someone or are killed. You may need to enable PB in your game options or update PB to the latest version.
