I still cant understand why you changed to liverail, why not yume? there are so many other video ad providers that have international ads for almost every country.

I liked the fullscreen ads in 2012 more than this mix of news and ad video.

I'm not trying to advertise or anything, but I personally use linkbucks, even if its not targeted to gamers you get paid just for having someone join, and there's no waiting time.

I've noticed that my MOTD freezes randomly now, even after opening just one link.

Has anyone noticed Pinion causes CSS to freeze when minimizing?

Would be nice if this P.O.S plugin would stop TF2 crashing because it can't load it's stupid video during count down.

Don't run it then until the issues are resolved?

That has been a long standing issue for a couple months at least.

I've started blacklisting servers that have the plugin and cause TF2 to crash.

I've been doing this since before these crashes started occurring, and I have no problems. I might occasionally have a problem if I bump into a server I haven't already blacklisted though.

Liverail is the ad platform, not the ad network (though they do both). We're currently building out our own ad platform.

Valve advised an update would be released this week addressing the crash, but there's no sign of it as of this morning.

Funny timing, TF2 update just dropped!
