I said offensive sprays have not become enough of a problem for Valve to
take action. If that were not so, then sprays would not be allowed. Since
sprays are allowed, they have not become enough of a problem for valve to
take action. I didn't say they were not a problem, I said they were not
enough of a problem for Valve to take action :-P
In all the years and the many many many hours I've played DM, I think I've
only seen one offensive spray. Note: I don't play CS, and the type of people
that play CS today versus OP4 might be why. My girls play on my server a lot
and have several friends that come around on a regular basis. It's been a
long time since I had to ban someone from my server. It's quite G rated, and
my girls are fast to kick anyone that gets mouthy or obnoxious.

If it was offensive to adults you disconnect from the server. Or you use
a
cvar that prohibits the display of the banner.... You don't totally
disable
something for all the server operators. Offensive sprays hasn't become
enough of a problem? What are you smoking? I never once saw a porno
banner.gif and I have seen tons of porno sprays. We have to enforce the
no
porno sprays all the time on our servers.

Whether or not kids play the game isn't the issue. Valve
turned off banners
because people were using inappropriate content. The
inappropriate content
was offensive to adults, and went far beyond what one could reasonably
expect to find in a game rated M for mature. They may one day
do something
about sprays in game, but the usage of offensive sprays
hasn't become enough
of a problem for them to do anything about them. yet.
