I'd join if I wasn't getting the "CD-Key in use" error! Yes, I have a retail copy. No, I don't share the key! No, I don't usually get this error!

Can a server steal CD-keys?

Yes, easily. Someone can steal your WON ID too.

To my knowledge, a server can't steal CD keys. Additionally, I'm very annoyed by your accusations via PM. I'm running this server so that you all have a community place to gather, and that's it. I resent any other implications. :|

Don't worry about the people who don't realize that just because someone's using someone else's key half way across the world on another server and WON won't let them play, that it doesn't mean that the server they're on has stolen their key. And, yes, it's possible. Call ID Software or Valve.

Damnit, I see 6 people in the game but I'm on a tech support call for my GF's lil sister. I can't join. 🙁 If you guys are still there at 6:40, I'll join up!

That's true skill my man. If you can still manage to stay ~.500 with a 200+ ping, you are god. I think I'll join up for a few rounds! Pwn you l8R!

 
Sorry, had to take the server down for a few minutes. I forgot to compile in IDE-SCSI support in the latest kernel compile and now my CD burner isn't working. Oops. 😛

Should be back up in under 15.
