[ Converted text/html to text/plain ] >From the discussions last night with fellow gamers and server admins last night, there is going to be a huge backlash against this. I for one have paid for my HL and CSS WITHOUT adverts. To now tell me as a server owner/admin I have to let VALVE advertise on a server I own using MY bandwidth is absolutely wrong. If they don't make this an option I see a large exodus from HL in general. The adverts while they may feel inoccus are a definate PITA. This may force us to shut down our servers which have been running for years. VALVE had better get their act together and fast. Crazy_One FaTe's Minions est 1997 Father dougal wrote:

People paid for the product, they deserve having a product without Ads. It makes more sense for a Free version of CS 1.6 to be released that has Ad support and also giving an "option" for people to buy the game which will remove the Ads. This is truly annoying. Valve only has vac and authentication servers, Valve isn't the company that hosts the actual game servers for people to play on. I don't see any reason for this idea to be added to Ad unless if it is a marketing scheme to kill off CS 1.6 and get people into CS Source.
