Three weeks.
Forum / Real life power trip? No.
Server power trip? Yes.
Defined as
An action undertaken chiefly for the gratification associated with the exercise of power over another or others, killing anyone because you can and feel like it is power tripping, which is what you both say you wish to do.
You are fully welcome to your opinon, as I am mine. You wanted me to fully expand on my opinion, I did. I happened to do it with lots of formatting, as bold italics are cruise control for cool, but otherwise it's the same sort of thing as yours.
Your main options are either a) Respond to it in the same way, optionally using even more formatting than I did or b) say "oh yes I guess you're right".
you have chosen c), 'sulk', which is not the sort of thing Admins should do. Please don't.

As for Shep's point, the server has indeed been off for a week, and if Valve's record is anything to go by, will be off for another two or three weeks. Joy.

I Chose C because I just got WTFpwned  Embarrassed
I do that sometimes, sorry.
Have a cookie.

And yes, three weeks. Probably more this time, since it's such a difficult task. Roll Eyes

Re: ||VM|| Experiment Rules

Ive made this suggestion several admins but seeing as valve will take fucking ages. Possiblities to fix the servers

- Adapting the currently available patch to work properly http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=100958
- Modify windows handling of file permissions to disallow of uploading and deletion of files srcds shouldnt.
- IP white list for the server box.
- Steam Id whitelist.

Any suggestions are welcome and feedback.

Or they may just get dismissed.
