Hi again, Steamping gets current supported game list by querying our own database in short periods and it uses the Steam API to check game updates then it sends these obtained informations to the users asap through twitter or e-mail when an update is released for any of these supported games. If the server owners demand to get these informations in any other way, they always can feel free to tell us and we'll try to support these kind of requests within of our possibilities. Thanks for your feedbacks.

Valve reps post updates and optional updates on the mailing lists, and anyone seeing your website through the mailing list already has a way of recieving update information, correct? And you're asking people not to consider this an advertisement, but is that not exactly what this is? I mean, the majority of advertisement/spam email I get describes their websites in a general "About Us" paragraph, which you have, some persuasion, which you have, (By this way, your servers will always be updated and serve a smooth gaming experience for your community.) you're also including a signature linking to your twitter. It's pretty much the exact definition of advertising. I'm truly not trying to bash the idea, I think you're sincerely trying to help server owners, I just think you may have wasted your time, perhaps like Misiu is saying it would be better to release the source of getting the update information. ----- Original Message ----- From: Seyhan AKDENIZ To: csgo_servers@list.valvesoftware.com Sent: Sunday, September 30, 2012 6:29 AM Subject: [Csgo_servers] Steamping.com "Free game update notification service for Steam games" launched.
