This all depends on the context that valve put the ads, it seems this whole issue has kicked off since battlefield 2142 started it and I just hope valve aren't jumping on the bandwagon. Personally my servers cannot run adverts, we run on a netless class c range, hence our servers don't communicate with the web (University Network) But guys keep the language reasonable. -- _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
