Using SetPlayerData to save server stats? - xplosiff - 01-05-2012

Hey,
straight to the point I want to do this...
for example, when the player connects:

Code:
if(self GetPlayerData("example_played") == "true") {
	self iPrintln("Welcome back " + self.name + "!");
} else {
	self SetPlayerData("example_played","true");
	self iPrintln("Welcome, " + self.name + ". You appear to be new here. Please read the rules and enjoy your stay.");
}

however, the code above does not set the player's data. it is refreshed upon restarting the server. is this possible or do I need to use a plugin and save server side stats?

thanks

not sure if this works for mw2 (it's from cod4)

Code:
player setStat(666,"true");

if(player getStat(666) == "true") derp();

edit: or it was getData/setData meh I forgot

I know you can use

Code:
self SetPlayerData( "money","BLABLABLASTUFFHERE" );

but there are some other mods that use this aswell .. so it will be changed when he plays one of those mods
