First my personal statement on the new ads: I hate them. Mostly the annoying topleft banner (did ya recently played deathmatch/gungame? A 3 seconds delayed spawning makes this ad really disturbing..).
The question I have is: Is it legal? You can apply it on everything: buying something ad-free, which is unstoppable selfupdating to another ad-version, is against my understanding of a contract of sell. But probably I'm right and we have the right to bring the game back receiving the money - but we wont do it ;). As a customer of HL:CS Im feeling a little bit twit by Valve. But again, I could exchange the game :). If someone starts some action against this (e.g. a day shutting down / password protecting all of our servers), I woul thankful participate. Just to let out my disaffection. And to let out some tears.. Moreover I can't do more, as activating a bunch of plugins, anti-advertising the Valve ads. I know, this is really childish. But what to do else? Taking Valve to court? :) --- Frederick P <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> schrieb: > Well, they are finally here... a lot of negative feedbacks so > far...
