-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Ooo, one bug compared to CS. And it only affected CTD. Didn't affect our server or users. But I get what you are saying.

Wait, first patch for BF2 they released had to be recalled due to problems and they released 1.05 and 1.06 right after to fix CTD problem. I know server admins who BF2142 servers crash 2-3 times a day. Ads are no surprise. It's the next best thing in the industry and it's just extra $$$ on top. People who want it will leave it alone and rest of us will block it.
