Not sure if TF2 would be a good example to cite here since TF2 killed qplay completely roughly 2 years later.

Before a third person does it, don't create alt accounts just for posting in this thread (or otherwise).

I suggest reading the rules.

THAT is my issue with ads, you run one non intrusive (no fucking blaring sounds) ad on connect no biggie really, as long as I can close it and don’t get kicked for having it off. But, that is not how most of these servers run. So fuck all of them.

At this point, it’s also about protecting the player base too. No one wants their computer mining bitcoins for the server owner. No one wants intrusive ads that blow your ears. No one wants to be annoyed. Not to mention how many ads are almost malware like.
I luv you Drifter.

It's a shame that some of the good uses of the motd were lost, but removing the motd is still a net positive imo. The scummery of all the background pages people would open in motd windows was just absurd.

Ladies and gentlemen, splewis, a man whose custom mods require an motd to function.
