• No idea about the site itself, but the spam redirects need to go. http://www.counter-strike.net/ is far more popular according to Alexa and since it's the official site for the game, I have little doubt, they're right. - Mgm|^(talk) 09:27, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

• Time for Explaining - The original article was created by one of the site owners as a joke. (a member called theendless). Upon finding it, I decided to change the wikipedia entry to be more informative and accurate. I was completely unaware of these redirects, please delete the redirects. (I am aware of how stupid redirect spam is). Many people have found the article useful though, I've received mail asking about the LAMP setup the site uses. If you look at the first version of the article, you'll be able to see how it did look (way too promotional). I've made it informational now, not promotive. So, delete the redirects, but not the article itself. (And I'll be having words with the member who ceated the redirects. --Elliothaughin 01:15, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
