Ook>> Is he running cracked servers? How can you tell? And what exactly is a "cracked" server? mauirixxx> It allows players who didn’t buy the game play the multiplayer aspect of said game. Saul Rennison> Server-side Steam authentication is effectively disabled, so players who do not legally own the game with Steam can play. I agree. It’s fully correct definitions.
AnAkIn> We don't support Non Steam servers on this list. First of all I hate this situation. Most of admins have to run so-called cracked servers in order to have players on them. I have legal copy of the game 'Half-Life'. I done simple research during an hour: I opened server browser, connected to various servers and then pressed Shift+TAB to open Steam Community in-game. After that I navigated to Players->Current game and saw 'No Steam users reported by game server' every time! Tell me where I can find Steam servers? I don't know they all is cracked in Steam Server Browser list. If you don't support Non Steam servers who do you support then? And who 'we'? -- Ook> Ignore the list nazis...it looks to me that these are all HL DM servers, at least Ook> the ones on the steam server browser. And the last I checked, this was the Ook> HLDS list.... Ook> Ook> right now I see DM3 and TDM2, TDM3, TDM4.

It's great help especially when there are no any info yet. Our servers don't appears on the list after restarting. I think the problem (poping on|off and absence) has two common reasons: ether servers get banned after some time (because cracked?) or servers don't meet list requirements for some reason. And I do want find out why. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
