You make yourself look like an idiot by saying this.
I don't really know, it is for you to decide.

Not really, the most people wouldn't go further then hexing the dll, but disassamble it and searching for a num that they haven't heard of, is too much work.

Wow. I was about to talk to BAIL about this concept. But it actually queries the forums MySQL database for the author's username (or nick if there was an option added), to make sure the plugin hasn't been changed nor can players with the wrong STEAM_ID even use their names in game.

Hi cybermind, i remember you from QMM,
but you have made q3 mods before, and you also know when adding one character too many, it will crash(when hexing a dll).
And like i said, i don't think people will take that much effort to completely dissamble a mod just to change it's name. But it's just too easy now, that's why i had figure out how to make a simple check.

As far as AMXX plugins, isn't there a way to fetch the name from the internet, by using a plugin ID?
