No one's forcing you to run servers.

I think my point is more or less what Kyle just said, plus the fact that
everyone is about tried of the hat-whoring. It's killing gameplay servers
and promoting trade servers. Congrats, your game is now a 3D Ebay for
virtual hats, good job.
And while update pre-notices are nice, at this point its like saying "wait
by the phone" then calling 4 hours later.
Speaking of which, is it afternoon yet?

To be fair. The beta is only really gameplay related, nothing of any
real significance is actually tested there. While I realize this is a
server administration 'discussion' list, my client (TF2 in specific)
is still completely borked from the April 14th engine update. I can't
even play more then 20minutes without it crashing out.
The testing model is non-existent or it's heavily flawed. It's 6 26PM
'real' time, the sun goes down in Seattle in little under two hours.
It's being shipped right before the last person turns the light off in
the office. That's what we're all complaining about. If there is an
issue with the update tonight, it isn't going to be fixed.

I seem to recall the beta being updated recently and containing several
yet-to-be-released additions, but I'm sure that doesn't matter to you.
There's obviously no satisfying you.
Meanwhile, myself and what seems to be the rest of us are thankful that
they
provided notice for today's update and that it's not late on Friday.
There
have been plenty of Thursday updates where they fix issues the next day.

Too bad it takes Valve 2+ days to fix the bugs they add in every update.
Say, speaking of bugs in updates, wasn't that the point of the TF2 beta?
Or
I guess they just like to test things in production like all the 'cool'
software companies do.

Well, I'm sure it's afternoon *somewhere!* I guess we should have
expected the *usual* *

We're getting ready to release mandatory updates for TF2, CS:S,
DoD:S, and HL2:DM this afternoon. This is just a heads-up that they're
coming.
