Valve, There are some of us that understand what has happened here with the latest update. We make decisions to better our server on a daily basis. From personal experience, there are times when a change is made, looks good on paper, but becomes a disaster when implemented, and we hear about it from our regulars.
Unfortunately, when something is not beta tested before the release, and feedback has not been collected, there is a good chance that the idea has failed. I come in contact with this every day. Software development is a very strenuous job to undertake. You continuously fall under criticism for every move you make. Bottom line, the custom tab was a brilliant idea the first time I read about it. There are a lot of different servers; however, we were not able to beta test this before hand to see what kind of impact it would have made. For a good portion of us, the work we've put into our servers has been devastated by this. I know that some of these server admins can get on your case pretty bad, and I don't support that at all, but I feel, this time, we're giving some pretty valuable feedback on this. Users are continuing to search for a server on the internet tab and there is a likely chance that they will not change. I hope some constructive criticism is a refreshing change of pace for you.
