@Steve, first off it only needs to be applied to the client. Putting the host file on the server won't do anything at this time.
If you think I am attacking him then you are sadly mistaken. I just can't argue with opinionated comments that have no factual evidence behind them. Now I am not saying all of Crapware's statements are like this, but the ones where I may have seemed like a jerk are things I simply can't argue with do to Critical thinking. Though, I do ask where I was off topic in my "attacks", which I just see as a friendly discourse. I could say the same for you. "...if you don't like the message don't reply..." You are entitled to your opinion, so if you don't like Pinion, then disable it. Or start a server without it functioning. However, some of us have found it easier and more effective to use pinion the begging there constituents for cash. As a server operator I am allowed to control my server the way I see fit. I am in no way putting Crapware down. I don't understand how you think simple discourse is putting someone down. "Sigh" @Crapware, I am in no way drawing him into battle. However, he has put out comments that wrongfully portray myself and and others on this list and it deserves a response explaining our side. We could simply ignore it, but that is just avoiding the points. mannor is spelled manner. :) On 04/01/2013 08:28 AM, Crapware Wardon wrote: > Hi Steve, > > It seems like "The List" is drawing you into a battle. Probably better to just let Valve do their thing and I'm confident that things will get sorted out in a timely mannor.

I also see others in the thread that agree with mr.wardon which the members of that list also attempt to put down. to what end these individuals have I can only guess and I doubt there is any real or truthful logic being applied to their negative comments. I would recommend something like if you don't like the message don't reply but apparently someone allows this sort of garbage to continue and as in everything a small group ruins things for the rest of us that play by the rules. > > ------------------------- > Date: Mon, 1 Apr 2013 07:48:40 -0700 > From: cmun...@cameronmunroe.com > To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com > Subject: Re: [hlds] 32 Slot Server > > I know you asked not to respond, but I feel I need to. I haven't been diverting the conversation only kindly chatting with him. By all regards crapware.wardon is drowning out a few good folks as well with his email list. I'm on it and as such you have criticized me. Meaning you took his email list to heart which is sad since those few jents, excluding me, are the main source of help and information on this email list. They provide hard and factual data. Why do I care, who knows, but I saw a purpose in responding to them, so I did. > > I'm not sure if he is a good by any means considering after every email is a off topic and cruel remark.
