-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Why are we still talking about this?
fact is I can avoid the porn spray(s), and if it gets to much for me I just not play with those players that seem spray happy. How ever I can not control the image forced onto my screen when I download custom content from some random server, I can only avoid the server next time. Big law suit directed at Valve if someone really wanted to push the issue. So now if Valve wanted to spend the time and give the client the ability to control if the banner was displayed, (as I am pretty sure you can chose not to show sprays) then there would be no problem, but again mute point here huh, they decided to remove it from the server and as far as they see it problem solved.
