If you host multiple servers and you go on facepunch you would care.

but most of us don't
except for the "go on facepunch" part

Because CSNation doesn't post news for Facepunch, but for its own community, we just have an automatically updated feed that posts a new article when they post news.
Yeah, "What the fuck?" is probably the best statement to respond to your post.

Just because you don't, doesn't mean everyone else doesn't. Zips posted a thread in the news forum on his website, and fp automatically grabs news from his news forum and it gets posted here.

God forbid I post news that's relevant to my site and my audience but doesn't always find the mass appeal elsewhere.

I care.
Shut up.
Couldn't you just make a motd that fetches the page data from another source?
Or even if you want it to be dynamic, can't be done that with a script too? Plus, who even changes the MOTD like every 2 days?
I fail to see how this is of any use

It manages stuff so you don't have to copy/paste everything over and over if you own more than one server.

There are active community servers that uses the MOTD for announcements.

And just fetching data dynamically isn't better?
I know if I was running servers and had a website, I'd set each server to just grab the MOTD off the website, with the game specified in the URL (so a CS:S server would grab one file, a DOD:S server another, or just grab a generic file if one isn't set.)
Or just run a script to sync changes between the files across servers (easy on Linux and such, should be easy enough on Windows as well). That's how I'd do it anyway.
I also don't get the point behind exclusive beta's, the whole point of betas is to test things, so why limit your test pool? (sure you might want to limit an early test, but you should have done that before you hit beta stage)

I did an exclusive beta because I want to be able to keep track of who has it and talk to the people and see how the like it, if they ran into any problems, etc. It shouldn't be in beta much longer anyway, I've corrected any problems the current beta testers have come across so everything seems fine.
Im to lazy to pm this guy, but i really want to test this^^

Well, he's on FP as well. If he doesn't mind, he can always use one of the CSN betas for people on here too. You guys are more active than my own community is half the time, so why not?
