There have been, on average, two hits per minute to our auth/version check files since the release. As well as approximately 800 downloads. Considering that the forced update has not yet taken place, and that previous versions do not have the version check, is this not evidence that many people do not care about the admin alarm?


I'm of the belief that people will continue to use our version, as we're the official maintainers of LT. Due to the as of yet un-required upgrade, the current use is evidence of this, regardless of whether or not there is another LifeTank around. The vocal minority may like their admin alarm, but in the end, I don't think it's a big of a deal as you're making it out to be.


So, good luck!

well its always the devs choice to change their plugin however they see fit...


this change seems to be a little moronic but thats neither here or there...


have you considered that this will cause some (who have access to programmers) to have advantages over others (who do not have access to programmers)?


I can assure you that admin detection is neither difficult nor unapproached in private plugins...


congrats... now you can feel better

Thank you for the "good luck" in your PM to me Para.


I plan to have a released version very soon with admin detection.


I could'nt see the numbers going up when admin detection is added back in. Also we are considerate of Killbit and understand how it works. Re-compling doesn't take long so it's nbd. Gui id#'s are what makes Killbit even work from my understanding.

Nice. So you're openly admitting to breaking the CoC, using our plugin to do it (not even bother to rename it).. and now you're talking about purposely evading bans from Decal. Good job.


You're threats on my server have been noted. Hacking won't be tolerated, and formal abuse reports have been submitted to your ISP, along with access log reports.
