A few people have asked me about these messages.
So I thought I would take a moment to explain them. The messages are part of an anti-cheat function built into the admin program I'm using. When a player joins the program checks for several settings which are used for certain cheats. If it detects any of the setting it will trim the end of his name by either 4 or 3 letters based on the length of their name. It will then put up the name for display ( for me it will read ruidCP ) This is being done this way to not draw attention to the innocent players who may get a C and P but allow you to see who they are. CP by it's self doesn't necessarily mean a cheat. If you ever see someones name with more than CP or anything but C or P, it most likely means the person is cheating. Some of the other letters and what they mean. A = nolight B = fullbright C = Challenge missing <<<-- doesn't mean anything D = dietouch E = cg_lagometer <<<-- doesn't mean anything F = farplane G = nofog H = novis L = lockpvs M = showSmp N = nocull P = Protocol missing <<<-- doesn't mean anything R = lightmap S = 3rd person T = acidtrip V = voodoo Y = gamma Z = forceModel Several of these are not cheats by themselves but are used to make other cheats work or work better. I could have it set to auto-kick for some of these. At the moment I'm not going to because some people may use them without know just what they are for. A perfect example is [PKU]_ashe who had novis set because a readme that came with a crosshair mod told him to add it. Another nice feature of this program is the ability to let other clan members access it remotely. RealDeal is helping me test it right now. I will be setting a few MOB people up with the remote program. With the remote you'll be able to Kick a player Ban a player for a day Permanently Ban a player All at a click of the mouse. It should be a big help in keeping our server free of cheats and idiots who don't know or want to play well with others. -------------------- Not a word was spoken to contradict or disagree with S@bot when he called me a....
bully, dictator, snide, hypocrite, arrogant, smartass and lets not forget, according to him the way I act is reprehensible. Yet, you're going to censor my signature because it's inappropriate and might hurt his little feelings??? Sorry. don't think so QUOTE Druid had my admiration and even though he has always come across as an arrogant, snide and very many times a smartass in posts and pm's S@bot aka Little Silver |

Thanx for clearing that up for me, I started noticing the program about a month ago really late at night. It said eFry CP. Just wondering what it meant.

Uhm... Saw a post on AA inviting people to come play on the new #3 server. I got there, and no one was around, so i ran around for a bit. I think I saw my name come up as lain CL (not sure). I had to go run some errands, then I came back to see if anyone was around. Now I cant even get on the server. Am I kicked? Ill say right now that I dont even have any mods in my main file since spearhead came out. I run stock with strictly everything except the maps I installed from your site for server #3. The only thing I have changed is my com_maxfps to 200 because my game seems to run smoother, and I have the honesty config installed. Looking at your list Im not even sure what lockpvs is. I know that its not anything I have set intentionally. I like your server, and Id like to play on it, but it doesnt seem to be open to me. If I am kicked, could I at least know what settings I can change to come back, or what I did?
Any help would be appreciated. -------------------- |

nm. It was just me.
the server ip was: 66.151.182.61 ProjxtShadow has a b@d@ss server set up there. Now if he could update the map pak with the maps he didnt include that are in the lineup wed all be happy! Mebbe if he could update us non-members with some links until he gets it setup... -------------------- |

At this moment I am running stock maps untill this issue is settled.. Please continue to visit Server #3 as much as you like! And thanks for the Heads UP!  --------------------  Success is often the result of taking a misstep in the right direction. |
