    Ok I fixed it. I typed:

    cl_restrict_server_commands 0

    and now I can play on the server.

    hmm...I checked the forums too late. I know about this command :p.

    Basically this was changed in a recent steam update. It used to be set to 0 by default but it was changed 1.
    What it does is that it allows the servers to change certain options of yours. A server that I usually go to use it to restrict rates, so that everyone plays the same and nobody "rate-hacks". Of course I have no idea what a "rate hack" is but still... ;)
