I pretty much fully agree with you Karl. I'm speak under the assumption that, like most of the servers I seem to remember, the words "OMG THIS SERVER IS RUNNING XMOD" are plastered all over a joining player's screen.
As far as I know there's no way to look for servers running specific plugins, but if someone makes a popular third party server browser it'd be plenty possible and I'd bet quite successful. And perhaps I'm grizzled about my experience with successful mod authors. I loved NS, and respect the hell out of him for authoring one of my favorite games of all time, but am also sore at seeing 1.04 die. It was fresh on my mind at the time of writing :( I wasn't alluding to anti-cheats, and don't think it's the same situation unless you consider admins enemies. Remember, admins are vital to your mod's longevity :P Regarding competative play I fully agree too - that's where those nazi tourny plugins regarding round time, starting rules, consistency, and everything come into play. Not all servers [in fact most I'd assume] are competition servers though. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
