I completely agree. Counter Strike is the most popular mod out there. The BIGGEST problem has always been hackers that ruin the fun for the community. They have consistently tried to fix things with VAC, and now the beta helps address another exploit that ruins the fun for other gamers. THEY ARE TRYING!
And instead of being stupid little kids jumping the gun...maybe you could help with this beta and provide constructive ideas to help instead of threatening and crying about it. Many people hated market pricing system...Valve gave server admins the ability to modify it. I'm sure if you presented your case in a mature manner...they will offer an alternative to other plugin issues. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of NaughtyGeek Sent: Friday, April 27, 2007 11:24 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [hlds] RE: [hlds_linux] Source Engine Dedicated server beta (cl_restrict_server_commands) I'm really going to have to disagree with you on this one. We all jumped up and down and said we needed betas before releases and here we are with a beta to test. Change is a necessary evil and most of the people here seem to have made assumptions with the information that was provided. The cl_restrict.... may have been removed, but Alfred has yet to reply to this list stating if it's been replaced, revised or otherwise. Everyone seems to be eager to jump down Valve's throat without acknowledging the fact that they are making an effort to work with us. Where's the big shout out to Valve from you guys that were spamming this list after every update you didn't get a beta for. We all know that updates will likely break things and it sucks to have to always find a new way to skin the same cat, but that's the way software works and most of you know that. Alfred, thanks from those of us who appreciate the steps you're making at trying to work with the community rather than against it. -------------- Original message ---------------------- From: "Keeper" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Plugin makers work hard to make plugins that help server operators as well > as bring some new fun into the game for players without having to > redistribute a mod.
