I'm probably late by six years, but i found out two things: [IMG]http://i47.tinypic.com/2hnnrbq.jpg[/IMG] [img]http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_xxCk4QMvziE/SUCAqDDrmrI/AAAAAAAALcM/z9Fl4oVJCTw/s400/CharlieBrown.gif[/img] Could this be an easter egg? Or it's just a really weird coincidence, because they could have named him "Charles Brown" or other nickname. [IMG]http://i49.tinypic.com/2eknedk.jpg[/IMG] I find it both funny and interesting that it "drops" Gordon from the server.

Poeple do have the name Charlie Brown you know.
[QUOTE=Thechuz1337;19958668]Poeple do have the name Charlie Brown you know.[/QUOTE] Well, i find it weird to see that combination, and the use of that nickname knowing people will mistake you with the dork from peanuts.
Congratulations, you just earned a box to put this dumb thread in.

Well done sir, you are 6 years late.
"Drops" mean the client got disconnected from the server. Source engine uses servers, even in single player, it just becomes a lan server. The player/clients name in hl2 is by default "Gordon Freeman"
[QUOTE=Karmah;19959001] The player/clients name in hl2 is by default "Gordon Freeman"[/QUOTE] That one I didn't know, I wonder if, by default, it drops "Chell" when you killserver in Portal. anyway I found that funny for some reason :v:
Good grief..

Nice file path you got in your console there. HL2 is really expensive right?

[QUOTE=CoolCorky;19966243]So how come when I kill the server, it says "Dropping JohnRCC from server"?[/QUOTE] You can force change the name with the command setinfo name "JohnRCC" Also before the community came out on steam, I think your steam friends name was your name in single player games.
You realize that more than one person can have the same name, right?
[QUOTE=Karmah;19959001]"Drops" mean the client got disconnected from the server. Source engine uses servers, even in single player, it just becomes a lan server. The player/clients name in hl2 is by default "Gordon Freeman"[/QUOTE] Odd, it always says it drops unknown from server. Wait, last time I saw that was when I was at the start without the HEV suit. I doubt it, but maybe you are player unknown till you get the HEV suit and the hud and such.
I would reconsider this thread..If they were named snoopie
You...... You would call someones name an easter egg?
