I'm sure Valve could have a thing that detects if any addons are installed, and if they are, they will not be added to the ranked pool. Server admins might probably bypass it, but then they can be delisted from the pool. Oh wait, I forgot Valve doesn't even bother delisting fakeclient servers anymore, or so it appears to me. :/ Or just not care so much about the ranking system... it's just going to be abused by friends intentionally not killing one team to get their rank up anyways. People are going to find ways to bypass it, and having "trusted GSP only" like EA will be sad. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
