Dude I just played on one of these servers and it's hard to describe how cathartic something like laughing was after so long

+rep better servers than valves

@Reaper

I have proof, if you want you can add me on Discord (@Xbye) and I can send you all the logs I have on your other account. I also don't mind just unbanning your other account if you would like, so long as you try your best not to continue that garbage on the servers.

Well the bind that was pressed is next to a button i normally push for vocal commands and accidentally hit a few times. Never have I said the slurs my self or anything racist I dont even remember changing my name to anything that was a slur

Hello Reaper. I checked the account you linked: STEAM_1:1:382494151

I banned it after the account triggered the magic word filter 13 times . Many of the messages logged look like they were quoting other users, but there were still quite a few where where it was just straight up typing the word. And then finally on March 21st, 2026 the account changed their name to the slur after trying to type it multiple times.

Hello I wanna know why my other account is banned, I have a hunch of it. I accidentally hit a bind that had a bad word in it and my friends f1d on accident.

But the ID is STEAM_1:1:382494151

I've went ahead and unbanned your accounts and given them another chance.

strange, i swear i have never joined these servers because i dont play modded at all, but ok ill take the griefing one, but i dont ddos, in fact i want to play here to avoid ddos

Hello again KaoricitauWu.

I looked up those two accounts.

Account STEAM_0:1:213892544 was banned on 06-13-2024 for griefing a versus game. On the first chapter of No Mercy, that account jumped off the rooftop.

Account STEAM_0:0:755797125 was banned on 05-31-2025 for DDOS attacks on the server. Sending invalid packets to port 27031 (Community Server #12). It was caught sending 0-byte UDP payloads.

STEAM_0:1:213892544 and STEAM_0:0:755797125 are the accounts i have banned

Hello KaoricitauWu. I looked up the account you are posting from - STEAM_1:1:834882359

You are not banned from my servers. What message do you receive when you try and join? I don't allow family share accounts on my servers due to them being abused by griefers.

why am i banned in 2 accounts if i have never played in these servers before?

EU Hosting when?

Hello Lost. In order to make a versus lobby, you just start up a regular lobby. Change the server from Official Dedicated to Steamgroup and then click start. You can then select one of our servers.

If you don't want that, you'll have to use an autoexec with the above text listed in Steam Group Servers or mm_dedicated Method: section. Or just manually paste it every time, and type "block1" into your console.

how do i make a versus lobby

While I am a bit reluctant, I've went ahead and unbanned your account.

I will be nice from now i promise

Hello JUMP KEKW. I looked up your account: STEAM_1:1:117212128

You typed a magic word twice. The second time you tried to bypass the magic word filter by using a `1` instead of an `i`. Not only that, but you also changed your name to something related to said word. I can't exactly provide the evidence through Steam.

I can unban you so long as you keep that trash off the servers.

Hello, is there a way to appeal from a ban? Best Regards

No website, just servers.

website?

Hello again Pickles.

It seems that Suicide Blitz 2 is bugged for versus. Trying to load the map with versus gives me this error in console:

> "Exceeded limit of number of vpk files supported (512)!"

A quick google shows that other people have ran into this issue with Suicide Blitz 2 as well, and many of the comments on the workshop page show that many people are running into issues running the map in versus mode.

but the map does not work for versus that part still is true

No problem, haha

ignore the second pickles because he is a liar and a fraud, the map works fine with normal campaign

it appears it is not in the map list and i am in fact an idiot

hey, it appears when i try loading suicide blitz 2 for versus it will put me in the loading screen, the loading screen will then be replaced with a X, then load me in a normal mode parish game. I don't know why this happens but I would greatly appreciate it if you could fix it.

Stats for July:

Baka 2.5 - 「Scarlet Nightmare」has been removed from the servers due to issues with it's most recent update.

Currently in contact with OVH to determine some issues with the machine.

Hello. I looked up your steamID: STEAM_1:0:668251582

You typed it 9 times. You were a machine.

I'll go ahead and unban you but you need to chill lmao.

Please unban me please, imsorryforbeingatard and saying bad words ):

New respawn plugin on the servers, read about it in the announcement:

Hello.

Hello.

Hello

I can't even think of a reason for the ban I literally have no idea. I'll take the Compliment though.

Will anything Special occur when the Group gets 1000 Members?

Hello Wool_Smith.

Triggering the aimbot anti-cheat is incredibly difficult to do on accident. I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to trust the plugin.

Permanent Ban Too! Literally not cheating but whatever xD

I got a ban cause it said im aimbotting but im literally not dude >.<

Updated the firewall today. Should function similar to before, but I redesigned it to fix some issues with Valve's master server list pings as well as making it easier to maintain and make changes in the future.

Hello Sashv. I will think about it. I try to keep things as vanilla as possible without anything being visually different. Adding glowing hittables would be very useful, but I feel like it would remove the vanilla communication between the tank and the special infected.

Small interactions like this, found in the base vanilla game, are the reasons behind why I keep things and whatnot.

Hello! I love the server and the fact that nb_update_frequency is below 0.1 since there is a tank every map in versus, could glowing tank hittables be possible? I know it's not very vanilla but would be cool.

Today I will be removing some of the custom campaigns from the server for a bit (order from newest to oldest) to see if I can identify a possible tank issue.

The issue was, during moments when too many common infected were spawning to trigger the plugin to then delete common infected, it was also deleting the bile jar target for common infected to target.

Common/uncommon infected are just named "Infected" entities. So I was searching if a string contained "infected". However, when a bilejar spawns, it creates an entity called "info_goal_infected_chase". This means I was accidentally deleting that.

I've fixed this by making sure to compared my string "infected" to make sure it is an exact match now.

Deleting the Bile Jars? The Issue where commons didnt path to the bile jars on some events?

Another update:

- Redesigned how my plugin handles the maximum allowed common infected on a map. After 90 common infected, it will start deleting common infected. This is to prevent certain older or poorly made maps from filling up the map with 200 - 300 common infected.
- Fixed the plugin accidentally also deleting bile jars on explosion. Common infected should now always be consistent with vanilla behavior with bile jars.

Some updates to the server:

- NFTables firewall has been tweaked a bit for more security and to minimize connection issues. Still need to keep looking into this because there seems to be connection problems for less than 1% of users on the servers.
- The chat welcome message will no longer display in versus mode unless it is a custom campaign. Hopefully this minimizes how many people immediately quit the server before giving it a try due to concerns about it being 'modded'.
- Fixed an exploit that allowed users to pretend to appear as console chat. Thanks to SirPlease for a quick fix.
