One of the annoying trends has been the fact that a lot of servers have been forcing alltalk on, and in a lot of circumstances, this can really detract from the gameplay. There are certainly other circumstances where it makes the game really fun, however I think it should be up to the players themselves, and not the server operator considering the fact that groups of friends tend to join random servers unless they are lucky enough to have their own.
Searching the steam forums, it seems that a lot of people agree whole heartedly. I understand the benefits of both options, however it should be left up to the players in each individual game. (this isn't even getting started on all the stupid forced settings some admins are pushing on people, screwing up mapcycles and campaigns in general) Kevin _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
