Frankly, I don't really care what either of you do. This type of drama might fly on Myspace of even the hlds list, but hlds_linux has generally always been better than that. I still subscribe to hlds_linux because the messages are generally on-topic, factual, and relevant to others running hlds an

Seriously... Why hasn't this been patched ages ago? Do they not care? Do they want people to do it? It sounds like fun, I'm thinking about trying them just to have my servers stay full for 20 minutes longer a day. Good idea right? Seems like Valve is providing the means to have these servers. *sig

Wow Jake, 15 redirects someone is getting greedy with their redirects. You complain about Q clan having 33+, your almost half way there. Not to mention your redirects have fake names. You just had to bring me down with you because thats the kind of jerk you are. If I remember correctly, you st

Yeah, noticed the fake ones like Q and a few others now are running still show up as real clients. I've shut my fake servers down. I'll put one back up without fake clients and see if it gets delisted anytime soon. > Date: Sun, 15 Mar 2009 17:59:47 +0100 > From: anakin...@gmail.com

They talk about this directly in their blog post. They are trying to find a way to delist servers that does not use information from the servers themselves. Any information sent to the master server or to a status request can be faked. If all they were to do was strict up on listing servers that

Jake, I think VALVe could probably do something, but again someone will do a plugin and find a way to bypass their protection, like making the master servers think it's real people who are connected to the server. That's probably why they are doing it this way, directly by Steam, which seem to be t

Doesn't look like it's automatic. I put up 2 redirect servers for fun on friday. They redirect to each other and then ban the IP so they don't show after a few loops. Still up and listed! :( On Sun, Mar 15, 2009 at 6:28 AM, AnAkIn . wrote: > I got a friend to try 2 of them, and they redirected
