    servers are safe again?

    I read somewhere that the last update in the gmod server (the one with the achievements) also fixed the exploit that could steal gamemodes and crash servers

    I am not 100% sure but I believe that servers are safe now...

    I also read this. However I think along with other people, we should stay down, until we are 100% sure that this exploit is fixed. Here is the facepunch thread:
    http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=798387

    If the exploit is fixed, I wish to say thank you to those involved. [probly wont ever reach them but oh well]

    Re: servers are safe again?

    Garry posted this on the facepunch thread about an hour ago...

    "This isn't something I can fix. It's on Valve's side. I can't change anything that updates the engine. I think the base HL2 engine needs to be updated."

    "I've emailed Valve but they haven't replied yet. "

    So i guess there is nothing to do but wait...

    Can't ventmob just buy patent on applejack and it's content, and the sue the person that uploads it or what ever?


    Edit: If you google "STEAM_0:1:11468988" it seems like he was banned from alot of the more known gmod servers.

    Maney servers have re-opened since HL2 engine was updated, i'm not sure if it fixed the problem.

    And i will ask again: Will it extend out donation period? Tongue, as it seems like it will take some time ..
