I had to change my name to cyrillic because every time I went to a new server I would be teleported to hell and back and then people wouldn't stop talking to me when I was trying to do something else.
Now I'm left alone unless I talk first OR I get preemptively banned.

Why?
[QUOTE=Ott;45685086]Why?[/QUOTE]
Why as in what? Why as in why people were teleporting me?
yes, and why would cyrillic help? Is your name notorious or something?
The Cyrillic helps because people assume I'm foreign and usually leave me alone. Also the people who usually teleport other people around dont realize how to use copy paste, alternate input, or an IME. It allows me to go on servers without administrators and have a jolly good time without the typical annoyances. Also many terrible administrators also have no idea how to do anything to anybody without an english name. The few times I get preemptively banned are the places I know are going to be terrible anyway.
Fucking Wiremod disappeared off the workshop.
WHYYYYYY
You know, there's the WireMod GitHub.
Like.
You can download the [i]whole addon[/i] with the [i]latest updates[/i] either in .zip form, via SVN, or Git.

Yes but its convenient to use workshop. Suddenly losing support for it is kinda uncalled for.

Reason is probably related to the reason it was not on the steam workshop when workshop was introduced.
Legal issues

Was it normally just a bitch for devs to update it anyways compared to GitHub and SVN?
I've heard you normally have to do your changes, pack up everything, and ship it all to workshop even if it's just a few files.

yeah you do actually, I imagine the devs probably got sick of reuploading the entire wiremod addon every time a few minor changes were made
Plus, I missed the days when people had to go into the effort of knowing how to use SVN to get some of their addons.
People known how to do things during then.
[editline]15th August 2014[/editline]
And being the only person that can make sense of the gates in a server resulted in a crowd of people saying "Can you give me X?" while I took refuge inside a creation for disposing money printers followed by admin assisted evacuation.
i made an egp animated cock with E2 but nobody could see it because they dont know how to get wiremod svn :suicide:

I know how to do shit on SVN, I just hate it and I'd rather just press a button to get it from Workshop. Is that hard to comprehend? v:v:v
It's like wearing velcro vs. tying your shoes. Of course I know how to tie my damn shoes, I just hate doing it.
Of course I did download a .zip after the Workshop upload disappeared. I mean, I'm lazy but I'm not [I]so[/I] lazy that I will bitch about a simple problem that's extremely easy to fix, without fixing it.
Svn easy, Just simple get link, Press Svn Checkout and click Ok then it will download :)

people running coderhire scripts for their stupid vip shit
its like you have to host a server yourself to get any solid play without any bullshit bloaty addons, its like every fucking server has pointshop or some addon like it. also p2w shit and just general addons which are ass.
That's what gets me mad, and ruined gmod in my experience, there's nothing original, just a bunch of faggot running terrible servers for the sake of getting kids to donate with their mother's credit card.

Coderhire in [I][U][B]General[/B][/U][/I] destroyed Gmod.
nahhhhhhhhh
It hasnt ruined it, but its sure made "custom" a worthless word
People who think every server owner cares about the opinion of Facepunch members and wants their approval. Some owners just want to provide some fun and don't care about being original, who'd have guessed!
People who complain about stuff they can easily avoid. An admin acted like a twat? Cool, go find another server and move on.
People who complain about Coderhire but don't even attempt to provide an alternative or release free content. How many users here who complain about servers being non-original actually bothered to try out Slave of Gmod or any of the gamemodes posted in the Releases thread?
Like, as I've said before, I understand why people are annoyed and such, but instead of complaining about stuff that probably isn't going to change, go do something productive! Code something unique, release free items, help out other people, etc.

uhh
right because before coderhire every server was a beacon of original, custom content.
imo the reason is just due to gmod's playerbase changing over time as the game became very popular, which was well before those youtube lets players people love to blame, though of course they haven't helped either.

Almost 99% of DarkRP servers/TTT Servers have coderhire scripts in them..... before coderhire was here it was vanilla and servers that had coders and that was the Great age of TTT/DarkRP.

No it wasn't, people just complained about servers using stuff from the Workshop

And then before that garrysmod.org
I hardly heard people complain about people using shit from the workshop but if you say so.
[QUOTE=BigBadWilly;45701903]I hardly heard people complain about people using shit from the workshop but if you say so.[/QUOTE]
Depends on what you use from the workshop. Let's say a server uses Advanced Duplicator from workshop, then DarkRP printers from workshop. There's a big difference. People would obviously not bitch about the Advanced Duplicator being from the server, but theres a slight chance they would bitch about the DarkRP Printers being from the workshop.

Well Garrysmod.org is free, I wonder why hardly anyone uses it.
