I really miss the old VIP setups too, especially the unique loadouts and effects. Not sure if they'll all come back, but I get that keeping things balanced is tricky. In the meantime, if you're looking to stand out a bit, I found some cheap cs2 skins that do the trick without spending much. It's not the same as VIP, but it kinda brings some of the flair back.

JB is only fun when prison guards aren't going rogue all the time just to piss players off.

Yeah it's pretty sad now. Only a handful of servers to play on nowadays. Been more into GMOD the past few years and even servers I've been on have started dying down more sadly. Community run games are becoming a rare breed. Maybe one day we'll all be able to gather in JB and praise the tree one last time.

Like to see this. How is the CS:S community? can we update the Servers tab? I would like to be able to hop on here and check the servers out to see the population so I can hop on time to time! @iongeneral@Benz

Hello everyone! It has been a long time since we had a ZM server. With each passing day to week we are seeing an increase of activity in the Crackhouse DM server (CHDM), and as a result it could be worth trying to set up a second CS:S server and see how it goes. I've selected ZM for this. We had a few interests risen for a GunGame DM as well but for now, we'll wait and see how zombie mod does first. It'd be at such point we can consider opening a third server. So far the following maps are on ZM: The server is presently 88% complete. However, should any of you have any zombie map suggestions, please don't hesitate to suggest them in this thread as well. All map suggestions must include the gamebanana URL.
