[ Converted text/html to text/plain ] 1. The Lack of VAC updates is one reason why I dont.
2. The fact that the servers I am an admin on are probably some of the best setup in terms of sv_rate, sv_maxrate, sys_tic and ping boosted servers on the Internet. As well as having one of the best networks available too. Basically all our Public servers are setup like League Servers except for our 32 player servers which if you followed this list you would know I have lamented about in the past, so why on earth would I want to go anywhere else? We have plain old vanilla servers of various sizes and setups, A Hostage Map Server, Aim Maps, Fun Maps, 32 Player Servers, DeathMatch Servers, Friendly Fire Servers & Warcraft 3 Servers. Hell Ive even thrown a Assault Map only server in there for the hell of it to shut whiny CS players who seem to like the god forsaken map up! Oh, and it doesn't cost me anything on my downloads or uploads to use these servers, why would I want to go anywhere else? Would you? BTW I have, and end up getting called a hack, which is amusing, but anyhow. ----Original Message Follows---- From: "Darren J.

Some of us do happen to step outside into the light once in a while and play on servers other than our own. Bugger off loser. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Whisper .

[ Converted text/html to text/plain ] Umm, the easy solution to that problem of blatant hacks is, Be the Server Admin. If you are not the server admin or a server admin, one has to ask what are you doing here? ----Original Message Follows---- From: "Darren J.

Date: Wed, 18 Aug 2004 07:31:07 -0700 I have thus far refused to participate in the "everyone hacks" thread, but last nights CS experience has left me so freakin mad that I need to vent somewhere! I play only on a few servers, all West Coast. We definately have been visited time to time by "super-good" players, and very infrequently by someone with very questionable skills. Most of the servers are regulars so we know everyone who plays there and the regs usually pressure the hacks away pretty quickly. Last night I jump on for a few rounds before bed. Headshot, headshot, headshot, headshot - my whole freakin team dead, and all this within about 2 seconds of round start. A player named "knife" was using every hack imaginable: speed, aimbot, wall, everything! Typically when someone is this blatant, everyone will vote him off fairly quickly. Last night the regs were the minority and no one on the other team would vote against this guy. This totally pissed me off. I was cussing everyone out, and eventually started taunting the other players because they wouldn't vote against him. I really didn't get it. This guy would kill everyone on my team within 1-2 seconds and no one on his team would kill anyone. They wouldn't even get a shot off - how the heck can that be fun for anyone? But they wouldn't vote him off! One of my favorite servers ruined by a freak hack and loser opponents who obviously liked standing around doing nothing. wow. So there's my vent / rant / etc. Hopefully, VAC will continue to improve and somehow, somewhere, servers will become a better place to play. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Timothy Lynn Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 2004 9:06 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [hlds] VAC Update?

The numbers are growing because of all the cheaters. Hey Mike, you want to start, I don't know, bringing some data with ya when you make these ridiculous claims? If one admin out two respond after this saying that like me, they don't cheat, will you be quiet then? And while you're at it... You may or may not have noticed this, but this isn't a forum, it's a listsrv, and adding a one line response on top of about 22K of misquoted and mangled crap is about the most useless thing a learned admin could do. There are people who get the digest of the list and when you make posts like you did it completely destroys any sense of continuity and needlessly bloats the digests. Not to mention there are people on the list who have metered usage, so downloading all these over-quoted responses does them no favors either. You're using Outlook, so take a look at the great program Outlook Quotefix at http://home.in.tum.de/~jain/software/outlook-quotefix/. It'll automatically do things like strip out signatures and listsrv footers (assuming they're properly delineated by "--"), put a sensible quote header in, word wrap stuff, and move your cursor beneath quoted material automatically. All you need to do is pick out the stuff you don't want quoted and delete it, a task that takes about 5 seconds. -- Tim _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- SEEK: Now with over 50,000 dream jobs!
