These questions are for the normal beta server, not the opt-in server.
I have set the MOTD and Admin Messages, but i never see them on the server (besides the Scoreboard). I join some servers and every 5 min something it scrolling through from the Admin's or the server. How do i make that happen? Or i have seen it before where someone joins and it says where they joined from (Country wise). How do i make these changes? Am i missing some mods or third-party things here?
My second problem/question, is there a way to manage the server from the computer that it is running on? i have the full command line interface doing its thing, but is there a way to manage it without having to physically log into the game? some kind of easy way to tell who is logged in or to be able to kick people or anything at all like that. Just a general interface to deal with the server WHILE it is running and WITHOUT having to log into the game?

You'll edit the server pbsvuser.cfg file:
;pb_sv_task X Y "MESSAGE HERE"
;X= Number of seconds after server start to say message
;Y= Number of seconds before repeating this message
pb_sv_task 30 300 say Welcome to my server!
Awesome, i wasnt completly sure if it was the third party or not. Thanks for the info about it ill try it out. Any idea for the server management part?
The only thing i am still looking for, as i was helped by someone else posting in this, is how to make the MOTD and everything appear every so often so the rules are transmitted.
pb_sv_task 30 300 say Welcome to my server
pb_sv_task 33 300 say Respect new players, Help them when you can
pb_sv_task 36 300 say No vote kick when Admin is present
pb_sv_task 39 300 say No abusive language, No spamming
pb_sv_task 42 300 say Just keep adding lines as you see fit
[mod edit - TOS violation] thank you, i have been trying to figure that out for a good minute lol
