You can't simply use an associated array, you should use Tries instead, which are much complicated (for a very basic task, again).

Associated Arrays are not that big of a deal

For extending a HLDS functionality, you have to learn a new language which you can't use anywhere else.

Not really. If you are familiar with C++, you can code Metamod modules. You are not forced to use AMXX to interact with HLDS

I guess that depends on your definition of clean

You can't do OOP in pawn.

It was never designed to be OOP, which I personally don't find that big of a deal

JavaScript has proven. It is actively developed, standardized and the V8 engine is maintenanced by one of the biggest IT company in the world.

JavaScript is not being developed, it is already developed (the last change to the language was in 2011). The engine that executes the JavaScript is what is being actively developed.
Just compare release times, Pawn's last release date is 2012-06-22, the AMXX compiler uses a 2006 dated version.[/quote]
AMXX uses an old compiler to remain backwards compatible
That is up to you. Do you really think you can support this type of project by yourself?

Anyways, i don't want to "rule the world" or something, i just want to use JS for extending HLDS. Since it hasn't done before, i should do it (though i can't code so good in c++, so the first version will be deterrent  ).

You sort of need to know C++ if you are expecting to implement a new language that will interact with Metamod
