To send people a page message as to why they were kicked from the server.
I was playing in the n00bstories server the other day and renguard kept kicking some newbie for not having renguard. Yet he kept joining and asking why he was kicked. If there is alot going on in the game (killing or just chating) he might not be able to see the rengaurd info. Ive gottin kicked before for being on the wrong login name on rengaurd and there wasnt much going on but i still didnt really notice the rengaurd message.
I think if you programed it to send a page message to whoever it kicks alot more people will get it instead of simply going to find another server.

There are 2 problems with paging
- It only works on Westwood online (Not Gamespy/WOLSPY)
- Imedately after someone is kicked they can not receive a page (try it).
Realistically you have to notify someone before they are kicked and give them time (i.e: Repeat the message a lot) to read it.
However I should mention that some players are just plain dumb.
I have seen my regulator tell some morons that they need renguard 2 or 3 times (they must have had time to read it) but still they ask "Why was I kicked?".
I am afriad that for the members of the Dumb and Dumber club there is nothing anyone can do.

Like gibberish said, anyone who gets kicked from a server can't recieve pages until they join another, so what RenGuard could do is page them 30 seconds or so before it kicks them for not having RenGuard. And I don't care about people who use GameStupid, so lets just forget about that group.
"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Theodore Roosevelt (1918)
"The danger to political dissent is acute where the Government attempts to act under so vague a concept as the power to protect "domestic security." Given the difficulty of defining the domestic security interest, the danger of abuse in acting to protect that interest becomes apparent. --U.S. Supreme Court decision (407 U.S. 297 (1972)
