But, that only proves my point. The way it is setup now, he will be joining voogru's example "party hat and grapple hook" server because it's on the Internet tab. If all servers were shown with an option to show only custom servers, plugins like that would identify what they were and he'd at least have a good chance of noticing the option and avoiding them. As it stands now, server admins and plugin authors won't use sv_tags the way it was intended because it kills the server.
Showing all servers by default with the option to turn off customs is the only way that the system can work.
