As for the Valve+Pinion relationship... If Valve is in bed with pinion then why are they not listed on the pinion list of customers?! I know why, because it's an outright lie. The a-holes collecting pinion funds started the lie to legitimize themselves. Oh so clearly Pinion must have hacked valve

Your post on the bug report explains it actually. Because sv_pure 1 is default and I have no pure whitelist then the server reports sv_pure 2 to the client. Guess it works correctly then, just a bit confusing :). On Tue, Mar 26, 2013 at 5:44 PM, 1nsane 1nsane...@gmail.com wrote: In regards
