I just wish they would pick one instead of now having 2 different flavors.
More work for us admins.

Didnt realize AMX had amxmodmenu as well lol - when did they add that ?

What I prefer, I run on my own servers.  What you prefer should be your
own decision.

This happened to Metamod as well and isn't uncommon.  This is a game.
People get bored as you said, also some grown up.  It's not hard to
imagine alot of the coding talent is found in the youth who play the games.

Being that AMX has the amxmodmenu (or did you think the AMXx team
invented that) I'm not sure how you can fairly make that statement.

This assumes that the move to go back to the older method was a bad one.
  In fact, declaring the modules only in the modules.ini was a dirty
hack.  AMXx also uses a little bit of hackery.  If I understand what
they've done, it's something like loading Metamod twice to hide the AMXx
modules from being seen in 'meta list'.  Again, if I am correct, this
isn't efficient.  Going back to the 0.9.3 method for 0.9.9 is much
cleaner and better for code sanity.
