This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] They could have a source at VALVe after emailing. But whenever I email someone at VALVe and get a response, I QUOTE IT. And reading the last 1,000,000 posts about how VALVe is working on it from some douche that has no clue if what he/she is saying is true or not does NOT have a quote from an email and clearly states that VALVe is "probably" working on it. I can see how you would feel that VALVe cannot legally comment on the issue. But if enough people get angry about getting jerked around about HL2 release dates, HEARING FROM GAME FREAKING NEWELL that the CS community would never be left out again. then VAC not updating, loopholes not being plugged, and a hyped December release that was literally a (server) FAILURE, you could make them comment about this.
I clearly remember reading from a GameSpy article that Gabe and other VALVe execs/employees where going to be more forthcoming and responsive to the community now. They need to respond about an issue that is a pain in the ass and has been for a looooong time. It is going to take the community saying "OK, that is enough. No more room in my asshole" to get it through. Can you IMAGINE what CAL would be like with no ESP or wallhacks? My clan would be CAL-Premier by now. Can you IMAGINE no more myg0t, JAPS, speedhacking, no-recoil, no more having to explain your 1337ness to a n00b admin? You ban the speedhacker now. 20 minutes later; the douche has a new STEAMID. YAY! We (server admin community) have complained about this endlessly for years. I complained for a while then shut up for a good year or so because I was convinced VALVe was actually working on it (according to You Know Who). And I think now people are starting to smell the BS that people who stick up for VALVe (but do not work for them) are dishing out. We can either sit here in the same old state of: "they are working on it. they HAVE to be. it is SOOOO bad out there they MUST be working on it" . like the last few years OR just DO SOMETHING about it. -- _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
