I installed a plugin to have a 32 slot TF2 server. No hex edit/hack or something like that. It was a normal plugin --> And my server is still removed from the serverlist.
Give a community the support to create addons/plugins/mod, but remove their servers if they use it... great! What should I do now? Live with it? ... No... Two options: - Shut down my server to run something else - Reduce to 24 slot with the known, that I will never play on my server, because it is too empty for me? --> Result is a not needed server --> Shut down to run something else... grr > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im Auftrag von > Thomas Morton > Gesendet: Montag, 15.
