I would say once per minute is plenty. If Valve could help us with that, it would be extremely useful.

One of the newly released hacks out now is a speedhack that will also grab every username on the server, and change that players name to a slight variation of each one, once a second. Something like a cvar that admins can set or something hard-coded to where either 1) the name-change allowed every X seconds is increased significantly or 2) only X amount of name changes allowed per round or (more ideally) per map would be nice. And here's hoping that VAC2 comes out soon - the hacks and cheats have become very bad recently, and are now widespread. - K2 http://www.hardfought.org "Alfred Reynolds" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > What mod are you talking about?
