Can you give some examples of games that would be broken?

Tyler,

SNMP attacks are easily 1500x+ the reflection capability (yes, fifteen hundred 
times) from a single packet. NTP is a couple hundred but there were systemic 
fixes over half a decade ago. What is being proposed here is 100% a non-issue 
(SRCDS is again, 8x at best) for the entire internet, and is instead proposing 
breaking tens of orphaned games. I really don't know what yourself or Calvin 
are thinking but this is absolutely a non issue and is threatening the entire 
ecosystem over absolutely nothing. There's plenty of non-source games that use 
the same wire protocol (hell, even a call of duty game) - why are we changing 
it...

Why the hell are you guys thinking this is okay lol. I'm actually really 
confused now if you're not attempting to be arsonists.

Kyle.
