The summary of changes for 1.8.0 are listed below.

• Fixed a bug with the send command telling you the user has a higher permission.

A while ago, we added a hotfixing system that would allow us to patch servers when they restarted in case of a critical error or exploit related to ServerGuard. Because we understand that not everyone is comfortable with allowing this, there is now a cvar related for it. If you would not like to have this feature enabled, simply add "serverguard_hotfix 0" to your server.cfg
