I have been watching a certain player crash the servers this afternoon. The player sends several very long strings like 126 zeroes in rapid succession and voila! srcds.exe crashes. I have a batch file wrapped around the exe to automatically restart but I know it ticks off the players to see some jerk doing this. Anyone else see this happening? Will VALVe pick up on this report via this mailing list?
If so then we could really use a banned player name string capability. Not the exact string. Strings containing text like the various permutations of mygot, etc.
Prevention is better than reaction.
