If your response is directed at me, please don't put words in my mouth. Nowhere in my message am I demanding for an immediate fix. It's simply an observation as to the current state of things and higher priority of adding cosmetics to fixing functionality.

Here's the entire TF2 code, all 100,000 lines or so of it, now find why the item server isn't working and fix it NOW, not later, I don't want it tested for other bugs, I don't want it put on a release schedule, I want a fix NOW. Of course I'm not going to give you any leads, all I can say is the item server doesn't work. > Date: Fri, 28 Dec 2012 12:32:14 -0800 > From: [email protected] > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Once Again Valve Doesn't Care About Server Owners > > I think the point that's trying to be made in this thread is that when > running servers we shouldn't _have_ to rely on stopgaps like this.
