I assume you mean your " |SoS| " tags.
Registration is good
Obviously you are protecting it correctly
Is it possible that Carlos changed the password and the info didn't get passed?
They all did the following?:
You could have them remove their tags and join your server, then check your svlog for the following.
CORRECT regname.dat will look like this
INCORRECT regname.dat will look like this
NO regname.dat will look like this
Registration is good

1. Start your game ( do not join a server )
2. Hit the " ~ " key to bring down console
3. Type the following: pb_regnamepartial <correct tag> <correct password>

Thanks for the info =GG=RocknRoll, but I think the Even Balance server was down. I couldn't even get on theirwebsite the other day, and now none of my team mates are complaining. I will wait a few days to make sure everything is ok, and again thanks for the info.

I've personally found the protect tags thing fairly pointless - everyone in my clan knows each other, so if a random person joins the server using our clan tags they tend not to stay on very long.
I've only come across a handful of servers that bother to include such lines in their configs and a large proportion of those only include their own clans tags in their configs.
Of more use would be the ability to prevent people maliciously joining other servers using our clan tag (as has happened before) however this relies on the server using (and keeping up to date) a protected.cfg as seen above - to be honest since the list changes so often I probably wouldn't be bothered to maintain this myself :s
Surely this would be a candidate for inclusion into the hub - that when a player connects if there is a flag e.g. 'protect tags' ticked in accounts then hub can compare the player against a central protected.cfg repository rather than individual ones on the local servers (whose content will almost certainly be out of date or vary)?
Kind of like a master ban list - only a master protected tags list
