Basically I am looking forward to play in the new "eCompete" league and therefore follow forum discussions closely. people were arguing about the zb_authhost not working (this was the same for every league that had an authhost). Rafael the Director/Developper of eco emailed the people at zblock and this is basically what he posted to us.
"Sent an email to them today, but I don't know if it'll help :s
Someone find a gigantic exploit so they have to release a new zBlock version. They said on the next release we'll have a zb_authhost "eco" which won't require their website to work"
fast forward a few days and he posted this:
"Please make sure you update your servers with this version of zBlock.
Please note that the auto-update function from 4.2.0 will NOT work due to zBlock site difficulty.
You can read more about the update here:
http://www.zblock.mgamez.eu/" and added that the other problems other than the zb_authhost not working when the zblock site was down were fixed.
That said, the new version is definatly ok and I would personally switch to it as fast as possible. The new version can't be worse and if there is a problem they'll post an update which should be picked up by their autoupdate.
