Temp/permanent bans not keep after restart

Hello! 

Great plugin, helps a lot. However lately it seems like the bans dosen't stick after a restart? Have there been any changes regarding this ? Or anyone else facing this problem ? :S

Hi, this plugin will be rewritten in the near future and I will only be pushing updates if it does not compile.

Be patient and I'll hopefully dish it out soon.
When you try to do a /ban command, it does kick the user, however, it does not actually ban them and they are able to rejoin.  This started happening as of two force wipes ago.  I think the plugin needs an update
Same issue. No resolution to be found yet.
