In order to reduce the problems on both the mwcm and mwba servers, this morning I put in place a few changes.

Modern Weapons Base Assault - I removed all of the taunts, head-popping, weather, and generally anything within the AWE mod that added any gamestate to the server. I added a punishment for TK-ing; a player will be warned for a TK, after 3 TKs the player is automatically killed, and after that any TK-ing the player attempts will be directed back at himself/herself. And I fixed the problem with the Allies showing up as British on Barbarossa, they are now Russians like they're supposed to be.

Modern Weapons Custom Maps - I reduced the slots from 64 to 34, four of the slots are now private and can be accessed with our normal private slot password. There are many reasons why I did this: only a handful of clan members play there so I figured why use so many of our server resources for a pub server, this frees up resources for when MOH Airborne and COD4 come out, and also we've had a couple of crashes on this server in the past couple of days so I want to see if this fixes the problem.

Frag on!

I removed all of the taunts, head-popping,


I didn't even know of these, or I would have used the taunts, jk.

Head pooping?

The taunts were automatic, such as when a Brit killed a German, it said, "You're brown bread mate," or "Have it."

Head popping, not head pooping, LOLOL!! Didn't you notice that if someone got a head-shot on you, that your head popped off? Or sometimes, if you got wounded in the head, your helmet popped off? Well, those are all shut off now. So is dripping blood when you're wounded... just everything not needed in the game is now shut off.

Thanks steel!

Ditto !!

Ditto-ditto!!!

Awesome job Steel!

Steel just so you'll know, I played mwba today and the server is running great. Not one lag spike on my end, this may have solved a lot of problems. Super job as usual.
