My point is if you are using you client settings to subvert my server settings then you are hacking. So there is no reason I should not punish players who subvert the ads any differently than someone who spams chat, abuses voting, trolls the server, aimbots, wallhacks, etc. By your reasoning these hacks, cheats, and behaviors are perfectly reasonable to use on any server simply because you are located somewhere else. The second you connect to our server you are taking the slot of a player who actually contributes to the well being of the community and you are just to lazy to join one of hundreds of other servers and not contribute to them. I don't take it personally, by the way, I prevent it.

It already has close to a hundred people who are contributing. So our players obviously like our servers enough to contribute. How do you handle the billing? I looked around for ways for players to contribute micro-donations and most solutions made it crazily inefficient. e.g. PayPal is 2.4% + 30c for every transaction. I would love a mechanism that allowed players to easily contribute micro amounts... :) ______________________________ _________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware. com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ hlds -- Cheers Terry Wrennall _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds
