Well thats pretty sad, when you see someone running 33 fake servers to fill up their other servers I think thats pretty bad, they should be able to just block servers using that mod. Do you think it's fair that some clans are able to run something like this making the Steam server list useless for players? If you do then you are running this yourself on your servers or you don't have a clan with servers. We find it a pain when trying to make other new servers and good luck trying to get it going good when people can join those fake servers and get redirected.> Date: Tue, 9 Dec 2008 13:26:54 -0500> From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected]> Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Fake player hack to fill servers up.> > old topic is old.> > valve probably wont do anything about this nor should they really and if > they did it would only take 20mins if that and they would have another > way of doing the same exact thing.> > JäKë T wrote:> > Well, just something that I think valve should look into.> > I noticed a few clans doing this for their servers. Mostly Tf2 and CSS, I found this page from looking up an ip because I joined a server one day that said 29/32 players, when I got in there was noone on that server and 5 seconds later I was redirected to a new server which happen to be the [-Q-] Clan > > So I thought thats kind of bad for the other poor people getting redirected and also other clans who are getting screwed over from them.> > Here is a link you can see they have 33 fake servers running this hack at the moment.> > http://www.game-monitor.com/search.php?search=70.79.233.228&location=CA> > There is the link check for yourself, it shows fake players with a score and time connected to the servers.> > Valve needs to find a patch for this, or cut off the people using it from the lists.> > I've send emails to valve about this with no reply.
