Sprays disabled for the forseeable future

look at the date this thread was started

April fools? Well that was hilarious...

in the days leading up to it I was doing Jungle Inferno contracts. as such, I knew Valve didn't disable sprays on their servers.

funny enough, I did pop into Idle last Friday and found that nobody put up any sprays, even after I did so

People say sprays are disabled on official servers. If you see one, its either your own or you had it downloaded somewhere already.

There are rumors that there is still a spray that can crash servers and I haven't really seen many complaints about sprays being disabled, so I am going to leave it off.

oh, so this is legit. and oh boy, did I need to clean my userspray cache.

I'm half-surprised Valve hasn't added an option to automatically clear the spray cache on game launch

Nuuuuu. RIP sprays.

Go to google.

In the search bar in the middle type in "porn"

Be amazed at the volume of results.

Don't detract from the fact that a female is talking about stashing porn. It's so fucking edgy.

There are not any females on the internet.

Playing it safe I see.

Someone released a fix for this and I have adapted it to our servers. Sprays should be enabled now.

Cool, I can now get back to spraying a giant gleaming turd wherever an engineer faces his teleporter against the wall.... "that'll teach em"
