I've been here for years as well and I've seen about 11 months go by since the last VAC update. So how about that quote in late December of "VAC2 is coming 'soon'"? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ook Sent: Friday, March 25, 2005 5:19 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [hlds] Alfred: Delay in HL2DM patch If you consider what goes through this list a "torrent", what do you consider what goes through the SteamPowered forums? :-) I would imagine that Valve has very strict rules governing who can post here and what they can say. Most companies do, or at least once their lawyers soak them for a million dollars for something some mouthy employee posts, then they have such policies :) I've been on this list for a couple of years, and we have seen several Valve people come and go. For the most part we have received silence, and then every now and then someone like you pops up and actually contributes to the list, answers questions, and addresses issues. For a while. Then one day they vanish, and we get nothing but silence for another six months. I imagine most of us that have been around here for a while are 1) glad we get what support we do get and 2) have lost a lot of respect for Valve because of the many prolonged episodes of silence that we get. I think I speak for most if not all of us when I say we are very gratefull for your presence here, and all you contribute. And don't forget - we are on the outside looking in, and all we know is what you tell us. You might take for granted information that none of us have access to. Maybe you aren't allowed to talk about things like how many programmers you have, what they work on, what their plans are priorities are, etc. Over the years we have discussed many problems here and we come away from these discussions frustrated and angry because Valve won't tell us what is going on. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alfred Reynolds" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, March 25, 2005 1:32 PM Subject: RE: [hlds] Alfred: Delay in HL2DM patch > This is the dedicated server list, not a HL2DM one (we are accepting > of all mods on this list ;-) Actually lots of people in the company > subscribe to this list but only a couple of us are game enough to > dabble our toes in the proverbial torrent of this list.
