+ First step to automation

I'm happy to announce that future Garry's Mod donations will be processed automatically by IPN (Instant Paypal Notification).
Its donations page (
http://www.aprilon.net/gmod/) now also gets Steam ID automatically.
Automatic donation processing will later be done for Team Fortress 2 as well (currently I'm having some issues converting some plugins to use the aprilon TF2 core), but I'll hopefully manage to be done with this within reasonable time.
Good move?
EDIT: Both GMod and TF2 donations are now being processed automatically
This works ok with membership extension too!

Currently sort-of beta testing it on the payload server right now
Please tell me if you experience any issues such as (as a VIP) you get kicked when a VIP joins/uses reserved slots. Much appreciated!

Now!!!
IPN (and a cron job script) will handle mostly everything now. It'll automatically process new donations, VIPs will be instantly added if everything is correct. It will also extend your TF2 VIP membership if you donate again before it expires. Membership expiring will also be done automatically!
Now I can be lazy
