Please post the Mailing List FAQ that states all this. Until then, I think you're going to have to live with it.
At this point, the sheer number of people experiencing it (everybody) is cause for alarm. Thus far I have found no workarounds, but it's certainly not from a lack of trying. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Evan Kaufman Sent: Monday, January 12, 2009 1:02 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] Time out at map change <unlurk> Agreed, it is a serious bug, and they are clearly aware of it and of how upset people are about it. The point remains that THIS IS NOT THE PLACE FOR COMPLAINTS. This is the place to: 1) Gather or inquire technical details of said bug 2) Share and discuss any work-arounds for said bug Airing of grievances belongs on forums and blogs and Valve's customer support channels, not on a mailing list for independent server operators. <lurk> On Mon, Jan 12, 2009 at 11:17 AM, Karl Weckstrom <[email protected]> wrote: > I second Patrick.
