It's called progress.... and a little something called learning. There is really no other online game that has reached the magnatude that HL has obtained over the years. I don't know if you ever developed anything before, but, what Valve has done with HL and the whole WON system has just been getting better and better. All I know is, that Valve has been more actively collaborating with groups such as this admin list and the #hlds IRC channel now for just over a year. And, during that year, we've come out of some pretty chaotic times (everyone remember the version that really took us backwards and caused havok for about 6 months because of a version control problem at Valve?). Overall, the license really hasn't changed since day 1. It's really up to the purchasers to follow the license. Now, Valve is trying to finally nail down a way to enforce it better. Although, it did take some steps to get here (e.g. unify the WON auth server databases), it keeps getting more refined and makes our (HLDS admins) lives much easier.
