Oh God YES!
Next update will surely be a cl_ command to block it.
[QUOTE=Van-man;26619924]You're oddly specific on your type of shock material.[/QUOTE]
It's from that one episode of south park where they run out of internet and have to reset the giant router.
I do like this idea, though. Something to look at, at least, while you download content. Unless you're windowed like a cool person, in which case you can just browse the internet while you wait.

The point of update news is not to criticise, but to inform.
this is bad
[QUOTE=iRzilla;26622743]Could of at least posted a picture though.[/QUOTE]
The whole point is for each loading screen to be different.
But alright.
Picture is also out of date, that was placeholder, any idiot can see that.
Yes
I can see this being abused horribly.
I would really prefer not being sent to meatspin, or last measure, or some malware site before I even join a server.

[QUOTE=windwakr;26626175]Errrr, note to anyone who saw my last post and doesn't know what nimp is, [highlight]do not go there. It will fuck your shit up.[/highlight][/QUOTE]
[informative]
Nimp is a mirror of Last Measure, one of the most malicious shock sites there are. Upon visiting the page, users of older browsers (or perhaps even new ones) will find their volume turned up to max. Following this, an embedded audio file will begin to play, screaming "HEY EVERYBODY, I'M LOOKING AT GAY PORNO!".
A window with a tiled background of harlequin fetuses will appear, along with many smaller windows containing other shocksites. Using a combination of flash and javascript, these windows will avoid your mouse cursor and spawn additional copies if closed. The website will also attempt to prevent Ctrl+Alt+Delete from working. More malicious mirrors of the site will infect one's computer with various forms of malware, making the impact much more severe.

[quote]A site created by the GNAA, which opens windows of 6 shock sites that fly around so you cannot close them. It also plays really loud sounds of a guy saying "HEY EVERYBODY IM LOOKING AT GAY PORNO", a few minutes after, sounds become more loud and screams and a Jews.WMV (which is gay porn video) windows open really quickly, they may crash your computer if too many of them opens. Don't worry, this site won't harm your PC at all, there's about 5 ways to stop it:
-Get Avast! Antivirus which will automatically block last measure when you go to it
-Get NoScript or disable JavaScript, the site will not do anything if you go to it
-Press Ctrl+W when on it
-Go to task manager and end your browser task
-Shut down your PC and restart

I don't understand why someone would buy a server then use something like these that WILL make you quit from their server. What's the point in buying a server if that's all you're going to do with it?
I will now make a fake 120 slot server with a COD: Black Ops game mode that's actually just a 6 slot build server and has a beastiality load screen.
I don't understand why people think it's going to be abused.
If a server wants to make you look at goatse or whatever there's nothing stopping them from making an unclosable HTML panel pop up when you join.
Besides, who cares if they do. It's their shitty server, it's their time and effort they're wasting. Join, stupid web page loading screen, leave and join another server. It's that simple.
Except when the loading freezes and you have to wait to press cancel.
:smuggo:
It would take you 10 minutes tops to code in a valuable, allowing people/parents to disable it from being displayed, and then everyone's happy.

Aren't the "cancel"s in almost every source game only a drawing :v:

[QUOTE=iRzilla;26628514]What was the point in that PM of a troll face? There is no reason for garry to add this pointless feature. Just don't go on crap servers and you won't have an issue.[/QUOTE]
Define a crap server. How will I be able to determine what server's going to rick roll me, and what server I'll have plenty of fun on.

Join it.
Right'o, so I join the server, watch some african get his head chopped to pieces or a cock getting blendered, hit ESC and join a different server.
Sounds like a brilliant solution. Ignore my previous posts, this man's obviously a genious way beyond my intelligence.

Glad you realise that now.

Fix'd.

Don't give them any ideas, garry.
A lot of you aren't realizing that this is a great way to see how good a server is before you join.
If you see a bunch of shit you don't like while you're connecting, you can easily disconnect from the server and find another.
