Playing on a modded server with auto-download turned on can replace
the UI with arbitrary bytecode - for instance, a UI based on the
upstream OpenArena release, which will consequently no longer have the
"are you sure you want to shoot yourself in the foot?" prompt. If
that's what's happening here, then there's no way to fix it.
