>From my experiences, sourceMM is more likely to just not load rather than crash your server should an update come out that it's not compatible with. I understand what you're saying about having to use mods to fix bugs in Valve's code, but there really isn't much of an alternative until Valve puts out a fix.

SourceMM is just one more thing that'll crash my server after the next update (if the update itself doesn't cause constant crashing), and I'd really like to rid of the mods.
