I solved the hat problem too, I just coded my own entity that applies hats to me. Sure, I can only use them on my own servers, but it's not like I play anywhere else anyway. - voogru. -Original Message- From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com

The reason people are angry over this is because valve employees are joining servers not hosted by valve, but hosted by the community. These communities pay for the servers and valve ruining the experience for everyone on the server by having uber weapons. If valve was doing this on their own

I agree - however, since this has since been addressed by Robin, what's the problem now? We should be productive and all I've seen so far are (some hostile) rants - if someone still has a bone to pick with Valve, state what you expect to be done about it instead of just complaining. What's done

Same here... we;re running the equipment manager plugin by Damizean to allow all hats (even halos, you dirty idlers) one one of our servers now for testing, so no more drama. I'm sure we'll be running the plugin on all 7 of our servers soon. Whats the rewards for getting a hat at random? May as

Whats the rewards for getting a hat at random? The same reason MMOs and the lottery are so popular. A feeling of superiority. Everyone likes that feeling :) -Mike On Wed, Sep 9, 2009 at 10:31 AM, MONDO mondo...@gmail.com wrote: Same here... we;re running the equipment manager plugin by

I've got a report that my tool doesn't work on multihomed machines where there is more then one server running on the same port but on different IPs.To fix add the -b IPAddress argument to sudppipe2 I've updated the tool description page to reflect this.

The problem with your analogy is that MMOs generally have an attainable goal you can actually work towards and a sense of achievement or satisfaction once you finally get that rare item that no one else has. That's rewarding. Not so with TF2. What sense of achievement or satisfaction do you get

Therefore I inquire, how are you superior because you played the game the same way as everyone else, but you just got lucky and rolled hat on the dice? You aren't. No one is any better than any other person because they got an item. However, they sure feel like it when they see that message pop

Valve automatically gets a limited slot on my server (they are invulnerable to the high priority slot kicker). So if they get on, they won't get kicked off. Valve employees have spent, all together about 40 hours or so on my servers since the release of TF2. One poor soul connected to my

Exactly, msleeper! Much how I feel about this. People whine too much and take this game too seriously. Consider it an honor to have a Valve player join your server. It's not like they would have stayed for hours with their overpowered weapon or dropped by your server every day. Try accepting
