1v1 Server Idea

[Wolfii 6 / 2,575]

Hello all!

I have an idea not only to please the people but to also draw more people in to GFL:

WS!

If you aren't familiar with !ws, it is a command allowing you to apply any skin to your weapon, plus !knife allows you to get any knife.

I have a link for !ws, but I have not looked for !knife.

Link: http://www.mediafire.com/download/yjll8lrc6r3p17n/Weapon+paints+v1.6.4+by+Franc1sco+franug.zip

It's free, and I think since people like !ws servers, people will come into GFL more.

Pretty sure all of these kinds of plugins are prohibited by valve, which is why none of our servers have !knife

If they are, I haven't seen any servers that have been banned from it.

Valve had at one point put out announcements telling all community servers to stop using those plugins (something about falsifying inventories or some shit). There was a bit of confusion and Roy tried to figure it out and have it re-permitted, but I'm pretty sure they aren't allowed

Really? Dang, that blows. It would have been a nice addition too

CS:GO community servers provide valuable experiences to players and communities, and are serving more players than ever before. Over the past month, 3.1 mln unique players were observed playing on community servers and this number keeps growing each month.

 

We're aware that some server operators are offering to their players false inventories and/or profiles as a free or paid service via mods on their servers. These mods inaccurately report the contents of a players' inventory and/or matchmaking status, devaluing both and potentially creating a confusing experience for players.

 

Therefore, we are asking server operators to remove any mods and plugins that falsify the contents of a players' profile or inventory.

 

To be clear, the services that should not be offered on a community server include (but are not limited to):

 

- Allowing players to claim temporary ownership of CS:GO items that are not in their inventory (Weapon skins, knives, etc.).

- Providing a falsified competitive skill group and/or profile rank status or scoreboard coin (e.g., Operation Challenge Coins).

- Interfering with systems that allow players to correctly access their own CS:GO inventories, items, or profile.

 

If your server provides any of the above services then we request that you disable them. If for some reason you are unable or unsure of whether a particular plugin should be removed, feel free to contact us.

 

We will continue to monitor the players experience on community servers, and may reevaluate if further actions need to be taken to ensure that server operators comply with the request above.

 

Thanks,

The CS:GO Team

It is not funny at all, it is sad that Valve isn't doing anything against it.

There is one community that still uses these plugins and they tag their servers with "gflclan". This obviously takes a lot of our population away, because, you know, who wouldn't want to get a customised knife for free? Not that that's enough, they also stole our website's layout and such. Denros, one of our web developers, got pinged by a script he put onto the website and he found out that their website, which is an exact replica of ours, was pinging him. And oh well, it goes on: If you look at the bottom of the website, you'll see the theme creator, they also changed that and put their name in it, and no, they do not own a company with that name, either. The website has been reported, but that's about all we can do.

Said communities behaviour is, in my opinion, completely pathetic.

 

Tl;dr: Valve has to step in and a community is stealing from others.

Denros, one of our web developers, got pinged by a script he put in it, he then proceeded to see what pinged him, it was their website that is exactly structured like ours, as well as it looks the complete same. And oh well, it goes on: If you look at the bottom of the website, you'll see the theme creator, they also changed that and put their name in it, and no, they do not own a company with that name, either.

Can you get me that website link? I can find the host and call them and let them know that they have stolen property and we can get it shut down.

I'll privately message it to you. Denros has reported them through a web tool, maybe you'll have more luck or at least get a quicker response.

Sounds good. Thanks.
