This was mainly just for Katsy, but I think everyone could benefit, because honestly, I have yet to meet someone who's like, "YEAH! I LOVE THIS FUCKIN' AD AND DIS SEXY LEPRACHAUN!"

Anyway, this is the link for the Tf2adblock:

I think the directions are pretty self-explanatory, it already has the protect.cfg file that you'll need to put in your ../tf/cfg folder.

If you're still confused, this is the original Steam thread link:

https://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3057308

It gives directions on how to do it, and don't forget to put "exec protect.cfg" in your autoexec file!

This might block that plug-in/mod/whatever that lets you listen to musick on some servers, at least it did when I used it. Or I did something wrong :P

Fix for MOTD opening randomly while playing!

One annoying side effect is that the motd opens randomly while playing. My first thought was that because you're blocking the ad plugin from ever receiving that you have closed the motd, it tries to re-open it.

To prevent this you have to fake the fact that you've closed the motd by sending a 'closed_htmlpage' command to the server. Since you've aliased it you need to execute this: 'cmd closed_htmlpage'. The cmd command is there to explicitly send a command to the server without processing it on your client. This appears to have fixed it.

To automate this, you could add this 'cmd closed_htmlpage' to all your class configs so it's executed as soon as you spawn as a class.

I've followed the instructions in this guide to a tee, and gone back many times to check that everything has been entered correctly - Yet, no matter what I do, I still get 'please enable motd' pop-up, in spite of the fact that I've executed the protect.cfg file, blocked motd.pinion.gg in hosts, and all the other requirements. Any advice on how to fix this, or has Pinion simply managed to workaround the various blocks?

You will get a blank motd you can click away if you blocked pinion in the hosts file.
