This is truelly getting pathetic. I remember when source ran so smooth where
lag was fixable with rate scripts and admins had full control over there
servers. But ever since steam/valve started with there updates and the o' so
special cl_restrict_server_commands 1 crap ,it isnt even worth putting up
any sources server, i mean we the admins keep steam/valve alive dont we? I
mean if they keep this up then they might as well host the game servers them
selves. And maybe in the future not mess with something that worked just
fine from the begining. Steam/valve really screwed up what were once such
promising games :( I guess steam will fade away once Crysis & UT2007 come
out at least thats the word that's going around.
Anywayz best of luck.........

This is my understanding of the problem
An unsavoury Server Adminsitrator could in theory, whitelist certain
textures as allowable, whilst still giving the apperance of being a pure
server. When server admin or players who are aware of changes to the
whitelist know this and other players do not, then changes in textures can
be used to the advantage of 1 side and disadvantage of the other.
sv_pure 2 is the quick fix, but at this stage I have not been made aware
of
the implications of sv_pure 2 + custom maps, i.e. de_season which is a
very
popular league/ladder map now as well as a few others.

This is true, it would have to be restrictive.. I'm not sure how it
