I did an IP check before approving the registration. This player has only used the name "StaticSys" or "StaticSys{KEA}" for the past 2600+ days on their current ISP. (Dating to April, 2014.)
IP address consistently geolocates to Texas.
On a prior ISP (also Texas) the records go back to 2007.
Luckily quadz reading comprehension level is way beyond yours and probably has better things to do with his time than be drawn in to degenerate propaganda.
Quake2 drama in 2021. If I could have predicted this, I'd be a bitcoin millionaire.
My favorite part is that the decisive stroke in this controversy could be brought down by someone emerging from the woodwork named "ANALGASSES".
There are couple of screenshots from Saint Pygidium under RTX client (light test)
Amazing looking map!
As you might already know, there are a lot of dark areas when using Quake2 RTX. (And the underwater areas were pitch dark. Had to fire the blaster to see.)
I notice you referred to the above as a "light test", so I gather it's a work in progress.
I'm not sure how it works, but there's some way to provide extra data to Q2RTX so that it knows that certain textures should emit light. So it should be possible to have the flame texture on your candles emit light.
Lighting aside, it's one of the most visually detailed maps I've seen in Q2.
Not sure how it will play on a crowded deathmatch server, perhaps best for a small number of players.
All of these problems originate from people in authority (ie those who can genuinely help) either refusing to address grievances on the part of said 'crazies' or just simply ignoring those grievances.
If there were one person who could testify as to how difficult it is to be fully banned from posting on this forum, it would be you.
Just a heads up, someone appearing to be the "Panjoo-spoofer" player (from last year) was on the dm server this morning, spamming a link to an outlandish screed ostensibly written by 888:

Contents of that page are archived here, in case it changes:
Hard to tell if it's the work of a troll due to its shitpost-y level of self-aggrandizement, but it nonetheless contains a number of inaccuracies. And since the author has disabled the ability to comment under the post, I'll dispute one of its claims here:
he does not allow 888 to register to post on the Tastyspleen forums to defend his position
To the best of my knowledge, there has never been a forum registration attempt by "888". (Will be able to verify this by searching local mail archives when I get back to my desktop.)
But in general: Our longstanding policy is to treat forum bans separately from game bans. This is specifically to allow someone who's been banned in-game to make their case here on the forum.
Name one new ROCK AND ROLL band from 2010 until now that has put out any good rocking songs. NOT a metal band. Those are plentious these days, and coincidentally, that's kinda why I've somewhat lost my love for metal now.
Not sure if these are to your taste. But some recent-ish tracks I like that are rock or rock-adjacent:
No one has explained any of this here yet for the same reason they moved away from legacy forums, like Tastyspleen, to discord and other places - they neither need nor want the power structures and social environments of places like this.
