A new hack has been developed which can source ban players who click certain links while on the server.
When on the servers, or even when not, do NOT click on random links that may be posted to chat, or to your steam. There is a high chance you will be source banned if you do so, which will be difficult to remove, and you may remain banned a while.
Said link looks like: http://goo.gl/****** with ****** being a random string of characters. Or possibly a po.st link. Or anything. DO NOT CLICK THESE LINKS.
If you fall victim to this exploit, please create a support thread or contact an admin, and we will attempt to unban you as soon as possible. If you know of anyone spreading these links, contact an admin immediately.
For security reasons I will not explain how the exploit works - If you explain it in this thread, expect a long forum ban.
Certain servers have been temporarily shut down while our development team works on a fix. V2d is currently still up. The others have been taken down, as an admin must be active to watch chat and ensure there are no active exploiters.
BE AWARE, THIS EFFECTS ALL SOURCE GAMES, NOT JUST FLRP/GMOD. YOU ARE AT RISK ON CSS, TF2 AND SO ON.
ATTEMPTING TO USE THIS EXPLOIT TO GET OTHERS BANNED WILL LEAD TO A PERMANENT BAN FROM FL, WITH NO POSSIBILITY OF APPEAL
