CS:S and the spawning skullz..

I've been noticing this in about 5 servers where you start to see skulls to spawn out of nowhere. It sometimes gets to the point hwere it bogs down the server and people start leaving and overall it screws up the game. Has anybody else noticed this in other servers you play in?

Re: CS:S and the spawning skullz..

It's an exploit that is creating all sorts of havock and anything from skulls to pink exploding popcorn, there is a plu-in for the server side to find out who is doing it so they can be banned.

Re: CS:S and the spawning skullz..

That's not how I read it happened, but perhaps there's more ways than one.
At any rate, we don't really need to be discussing how to disrupt servers here. I'm sure if you really feel the need to figure it out, a PM or two would suffice.
