I would advise nobody to use the GetTickCount method. Kingj servers doesn't always restart within 24 days, that's how i know. One day all commands (that had anti abuse) stopped working, i printed GetTickCount and it was a negative value. Had to switch all code to gettime(). Just saying this in the hopes of saving someone time.

Both ways are fine, everyone should at least restart their server once per week sometimes two but that's when I'm not able to make a update for my server. Anyway, you are right. I'll convert soon.

I use gettickcount for most anti-spamming, gettime for expiration of things.
