Sorry, I wasn't trying to invoke a "my GSP is better then yours" war :P
In my experience with my provider, so far all the steam updates have been flawless. When I've done an update in the past, I would watch the server via HLSW, so I could tell when the server is back up, and if I need to restart the patching process. It's extra unnecessary work that would rock if it was fully automated, even if all it took was an "rcon quit" to restart the server so it would pull the new content. Again, I'm sorry if I pissed anyone off by advertising who'm my gsp is, the last thing I want is yet another flame war on this list.

There are also many other companies that either automatically update installs for the customer or allow them to manually update their server installations. AoWC is certainly not setting the curve there (and in fact it may be nearer to the bottom of the service/feature spectrum, from what our customers have told us). Presumably Ray's company supports automatic or manual upgrades, judging by his statements. I suspect that he intentionally passed up the chance to advertise so that this will not devolve into comparison of specific GSPs, as that discussion would be better left to one of the many player-oriented forums and websites. -John _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
