I hope you understand that even if VALVe blocked plugin_load from none relative directories, you could make a plugin which loads plugins from absolute paths anyway.
tl;dr: fix your permissions. Thanks, - Saul. 2011/1/21 Andre Müller <gbs.dead...@googlemail.com> > You all think it's ok, when the server can load plugins from anywhere. > Do you need this?
