Your point was that he was not "properly configuring" his server. My point is that the server kicks bots at the end of the round and thus a script might be better if he has long rounds. If you consider a mere attempt to provide an alternative to "this dude sucks at configuring his server" as "trash talking" (thus apparently requiring you to step up your game and start ridiculing me and all of my posts to the mailing list in addition to his ability to set up his server), then maybe you should consider posting someplace more... soft and fuzzy?
