About.

In this tutorial I will briefly describe how to start using HLR ban poster. First of all you need to install it on your computer using the latest setup file downloaded from http://garena.brains.by. Please check if you have .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 (10-60 mb download) installed on your computer before installation, because ban poster won’t run without it.

Part 1: Configuring.

As soon as u will start Ban Poster for the first time, configuration dialog will appear.

The program will try to detect correct Warcraft III Screenshots catalog by itself, otherwise you’ll need to click browse and find that location manually. If you are planning to use custom screenshots software, you’ll probably need to configure image files filter too.

Part 2: Posting leaver report.

As soon as you’ve made a screenshot of leaver, you can use it to post a ban request.

1. Select room you are playing in.

2. Select screenshot (you may need to click the Refresh button first, if the application was started a long time ago).

3. Enter leaver details (name, kills, deaths, teams status, dead/alive status fields are required, other fields like assists, misc. info are optional).

4. Click Post button. Wait for program to finish posting a new banrequest.

5. If you were not logged to forum before the ban request posting, you’ll need to login using your credentials, and then click the software Post button again.

6. If you have a single screenshot for several leavers, remove tick from the “Remove” checkbox before posting the first leaver, the program will keep the screenshot after that.

Part 3: Posting AFK report.

1. Select the room you are playing in.

2. Select AFK mode and enter AFK-er details (including AFK time field)

3. Click Post button, wait program to open a new ban request page for you.

4. Attach replay to the post manually.

5. Click “Post new thread” button (in browser window).

Part 4: Working with history.

1. The program keeps the history of your ban-requests, showing Ban duration, Ban Time left, etc. for every particular request and in total (for all requests).

2. As soon as you will post a new ban request it will appear at the history tab with “?” sign as result (meaning it is unknown if the moderator accepted request and banned the target).

3. After this you can click Discover button at any time to check all outstanding ban requests and update their statuses. Please, be patient, usually it takes some time for moderators to reply and commit ban actions according to your request.

4. Your history will also be stored on HLR Ban Poster site http://garena.brains.by, and you can access it using the link like http://gu.brains.by/[GArena UID] (like this http://gu.brains.by/1400988) or in the form of generated your stats image at http://si.brains.by/[GArena UID], like this (http://si.brains.by/1400988):
