Re: [hlds] GSP Hosting Questions

I apologize to all those that really don't want to hear this discussion. But this was the first place I thought of when I thought of this issue that has currently presented itself to my clan.

I for one appreciate the discussion. We currently rent a dedicated box from Limestone, but we're always interested in what else is available so we can provide the best gaming experience for our community. Great insight so far, if nothing else in the form of helping some folks find providers that

Actually, I would say this is very relevant, considering a lot of people on this list especially (Windows) would not be server owners and infact would be GSP customers ;) It's good to get feedback (especially if you are a GSP with negative feedback) so you can use it to improve your services ;)

This may have to do with game servers but do you really think everyone on the list needs to hear about this discussion. This is the kind of topic that makes Valve want to switch us over to forums. If you want any constructive feedback you should go to srcds.com where they know about every host and

@Nicholas: Yes. That is correct, as Lane mentioned however there are common items available in 'one-click' format (In the case of L4D2 last time I checked it was several versions of MM+SM, SDK Hooks, and a few others). It makes sense for me, given that if they didn't prevent it not only are the p
