Remember that article awhile back about a rogue admin running a game server on his employer's hardware? Well, NetworkWorld has posted a follow-up story featuring real life stories from various "rogue" admins around the country. Interesting reading, especially if you employ one of these people.
Mr. West: In the past we've had Team Fortress 2, Killing Floor, Counter Strike, Minecraft, and a few others. We've actually run the servers off of a few different boxes. As the company grew/changed we'd need to switch things over to a different box so as not to overload a production box with non-production processes. Obviously it's in our best interest to not cause downtime or other issues so as to not draw attention.
