RE: [hlds_linux] Never ever seen my banner.gif

[Guy Watkins]

I looked about 6 months ago.  I had over 1 gig of sprays.  Some sprays are
kiddy porn, not many.  But 1 gig is more than I can view, so I only looked
at a small sample.  I plan to auto delete the sprays after a few days old,
but never got around to it.

Also found some real death scenes.  Real head shots and junk.

I do like having sprays, sort of fun.  But you can't control the content.
