I want to say that anyone suggesting that cracking your server does not push people to buy the legit version of the game is ridiculous. Let me tell you the story of myself, and over 200 other TF2 players. Back in the months January - June a cracked server called Onan's Disciples was started. It turned out to be one of the biggest American servers, having a consistent 32 players for much of the day. When the server was shut down and replaced by a legit server, almost all of us bought the game on Steam. Just about everyone who was a regular on that server now owns the game legit, and the vast majority of them originated as pirates. That server achieved two things: a) People bought the game who, if they hadn't gotten the cracked version of the game, probably wouldn't have. b) It created a community that lasted even when the server went legit. Sure, that server allowed people to illegally play the game, some of whom never went out and bought it (more often than not, because they didn't have the ability to buy it), but if that server did not exist, would the ones who did buy it have bought the game?

Yes, I know, I can't afford a game for $20 with tax. But with the economy of Canada and the USA failing, along with my family hitting some hard times, most of my paycheck goes to paying bills, and the rest of it goes to paying for groceries. The server I was playing on, Pwndora's Box, was a cracked one, allowing people without the actual game, to test your game out and play it. It gave me a chance to just kick back and forget the issues at hand and play with some good people.

I'm emailing you today because of a cracked server for your game, Team Fortress 2. It isn't anything bad, far from, I just wanted to say that I would like to thank you for allowing someone who can't really afford the game just yet to be able to play it. Yes, I know, I can't afford a game for $20 with tax. But with the economy of Canada and the USA failing, along with my family hitting some hard times, most of my paycheck goes to paying bills, and the rest of it goes to paying for groceries. The server I was playing on, Pwndora's Box, was a cracked one, allowing people without the actual game, to test your game out and play it. It gave me a chance to just kick back and forget the issues at hand and play with some good people. Though due to the possible crash exploit, that is no longer viable for me to do anymore, seeing as the server had to go down due to the constant crashing of some random occurance of someone or something logging on and taking down the server. It is due to this, and the fact that I have become far to used to playing your games, I shall be saving up all the money I can spare over the next month in order to buy your game.

Re: [hlds] New crash exploit?(TF2)
Valve is a dictatorship because they ask for money for the product they produce, and you use? 2008/12/21 Justin mysteriousjus...@gmail.com Alright, I don't even believe this that nobody on here has even pirated software for any reason. I'm sure most of you have pirated something and still have it on your computer, honestly shut up about costing valve money because they get a lot of money just because of noob hackers who think they can bypass VAC. Im tired of the dictatorship that valve has become.

For the rest of us it could be speeding, running a stop light or lifting something from work. We can get away with it so we do it. Get over it and move on.

I was trying to figure out what was going on here. I noticed that you didn't mention your server so I went ahead and googled your alias (mysteriousjustin) to see if I could find out what your server IP may be.

Re: [hlds] New crash exploit?(TF2)
Yes, it does. It's also possible for legitimate accounts to connect to it. In order to 100% be sure it's pirate (because I would normally have a STEAM ID), I have log on to steam in another location. Connecting to a legitimate server knocks you off with Steam account already in use in another location, where as a pirate server will accept the connection and hit you up with a fake STEAM ID. Which will be either, Steam_Id_Cracked STEAM_0:0:0 STEAM_666:88:666 (or something in that form) Or possibly in the future, an ID that may not be your real STEAM ID.

How did it get derailed? The problem with the server was that it is pandering to filthy pirates who don't want to pay ten measly American dollars for an excellent game. Problem solved.

Re: [hlds] New crash exploit?(TF2)
Just to clarify myself a little; Cracked servers are always going to be a touchy subject among gamers and admins. Personally, I'm not *completely* against running /*private*/ cracked servers, I ran one for CoD4 for 2 weeks at release for my community, the result was that 25 people from my community who wouldn't have bought the game ended up buying it. (I know some people here will be against this, but the only affect it had on anyone was more sales as people had got to love the game bought it) and that was a one off for my community, as the uptake was slow for such a fun game. net result? 25 more sales for activision. What you're doing, advertising yourself as The only english/usa cracked tf2 server. does nothing but encourage piracy, and I suspect cheating to some degree, which is bad for players and bad for valve. You're giving nothing back to valve, it's unlikely you've caused more sales by advertising your server as you have, and now you're lashing out at others who seem to run legit servers.

Re: [hlds] New crash exploit?(TF2)
But in advertising your cracked server to the public, and keeping it cracked (well over a year after release) that strikes me more like you're running cracked servers and condoning piracy.
