I was running a server for my college and other students I worked with were able to RDP the box and mess with the configs. I spent hours finding everything they messed up. I ended up quitting shortly after that

Yeah, I know how you feel. Diagnosing a problem that you don't know much about. Thats why you set permissions and things of that nature. That's why I limit FTP/SSH access to my boxes.

Mani is pretty bad, the only thing I would consider it for is CS:S and that's only for people who are new to that sorta thing. Sourcemod is by far the most flexible and reliable. Unless VAlve breaks it.

Yeah I hope not. Just wish it was as flexible as Mani. But, guess it can't be or else it would be just as easy to bypass.

Sourcemod plugins are very easy to handle
