DrLee 15 Posted February 22, 2014 As you've most likely noticed, we have ads on our servers. And to the most part, I can see the point of them for the clan. We need money, servers cost money, and the site isn't cheap to keep up. I understand that. But I'm just wondering if donators can somehow bypass it like our moderators/admins/ect. are set up to do so. I'm not a coder, so I'm unaware if you could manage doing this under someone's server group and if it's under 'custom (6).' But, if the purpose of these ads are to generate profit, I know many people are interested in skipping the ads. I believe offering this to donators (staff still, obviously) would probably interest more people into donating to our servers. Just a suggestion. ;) @Tsuchikure @Nomulous, pls. @Hidingmaster @diabeetus @xGTim @Gawd 2 ForestFire and TryRebooting reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nomulous 14 Posted February 22, 2014 Would require tinkering around some custom flags and checking bypass privileges, but it would require @Rhododendron and I quite a bit of time to import who's a donator, who's in what game section, add them to sourcebans, add the custom flag, et cetera.

MrJeeblez 0 Posted February 22, 2014 A beautiful idea. Think about it. We all know the ads are fucking retarded (no offense). I'd give my left testicle if it meant I didn't have to hear another Logan's Steakhouse, Safe Auto Insurance, or Suntrust Bank commercial again. If I am being completely honest, since the ads have been added, I have been avoiding getting on CS:S, and have really only been getting on when staff was needed. This suggestion makes tons of sense. People don't want the ads. $5 donation = ad-free fun? Hell yeah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeToucan 136 Posted February 22, 2014 in this change line 896 to > if (GetConVarBool(g_ConVarImmunityEnabled) && CheckCommandAccess(client, "advertisement_immunity", ADMFLAG_CUSTOM6)) You might have some success with just using an override for "advertisement_immunity", though i dont know for sure.

DrLee 15 Posted February 24, 2014 If ads are implemented because of lack of donations, I think offering this (eventually) will gain our servers more donations. plsThepopulationwashorrible. Thank you, based Bleed/Nom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
