Ingame sprays and server bots

Hey all, after answers to two questions.

I know Gametracker doesnt like you "cheating numbers" by having bots on your server, but I know that some servers have them and arent penalised by Gamtracker. We want to have say 4 or 6 bots on our empty servers to encourage ppl to join and kick off the server for the day, As each player joins a bot will be kicked and so on till theyr'e gone. Would someone with the appropriate authority tell me if this is acceptable to Gametracker stats please?

The other question is that since the big update, (which we all call The Downdate) sprays are difficult to get working. One can see their own spray, but most ppl can't. Some can see, most can't, or none will work. It's a random thing, but there must be a common denominator. We alter image formats, image size, import methods, and nothing fixes it. Anyone else solved this yet? We play CSS GunGAme btw.

Cheers people

GT will derank servers if the server runs fake players or bots which are not detected on the server page. Whether the server has very many or if they have them on for very long time doesn't make a difference, as it is still increasing their rank. If the servers are reported we can derank them.

Dunno if I do another post here or start a new thread, but anyways. I've just set up our clan page, profile etc, is there a way of adding all our members to a list? Or do they all have to register with Gametracker or what?

Soz, I'm a navigational nub

On the clan page, find the link to "Edit Members" above the forum block. You can invite users to be a member on your clan page from there.
