@user Hajt, user lennon: I actually was thinking in making a unofficial black list containing the IP(s) (and proxies) of those hackers/cheaters. However, I don't have credit to buy a server to host that list and I don't know anyone would at least host it for long enough to make it worth it.

Not sure what to say but the problem is kinda obvious: new people who want join cs2d thinks to play real counter strike 2d (standard mods), when they see the servers full of mods such as minecraft and happytown for example most of them just quit because is so boring and stupid.
Just take a look from the old cs2d era, no mods and only standard servers just full of people. Now with this new versions just some 12 year kids in minecraft servers and anothers are just empty.
My idea is starting to make a unrealsoftware tournament (just like some guys did to cc) and try to recorver new and old people.
Also pcs project is trying to keep cs2d competitive alive and without having help from dc (competitive updates and much more).

In this ages if u have on u server standard mode with de_dust u will have max 3 players per day, if u have minecraft, roleplay, happy play etc u will have more than 10 players. Can someone share a file for linux a autostarter server when its crash?

They dont visit this forum, they usually kids 10-12 years old, i think the best protect of doss attack for now is autostarter script. Many servers they have this.

It's the other way round mate. People that join CS2D find these mods and keep playing. It's the 12 years old keeping it alive, not killing it.

You must be going back more than 5 years. Because it's been mods and less standard stuff for ages.

Now I'm not the one who takes a liking into failed "minecraft" modifications. Instead I try to make people keep the fast-paced shooting feel it is, but combine it with other things such as abilities, ranking, a little building, controllable turrets etc.

Well is true but they are "destroying" what cs2d used to be.

@user slimK: They don't even play it. How can you destroy something you never touch? It makes no sense. Standard CS2D isn't as interesting as it used to be.

Combine standard with mods which give rewards which people can show off on (possibly) PCS forum. I'm willing to bet the player count will increase slightly which will lead to their other friends playing with them.

Well, when lua was added to cs2d from this times peoples making everything and we can stop them. You can check how many peoples playing right now on standard servers. Peoples are bored normal modes and they trying to do other things. Well its positive ,this elastic gameplay. How we can protect servers? Can we win with this kids which trying to be hakers?

Contradiction is what I see in your post. That, and the use of shit-translator.tk

The reason why vanilla CS2D is barely played is because people have the mentality that it's too standard and not unique. Also because it's not really balanced and therefore less enjoyable.
