We used to have tag setting functions included in SourceMod (they still exist, but are no-ops), we had to remove them due to the very short tags string quickly overflowing and breaking the server browser with lots of plugins adding tags. Has the server info corruption with a long tags string been fixed since? Can you increase the max tag length?

If you are running a plugin that makes gameplay changes similar to the ones that exist in the engine, please make sure that your plugin also sets the appropriate server tags that would have been set by the engine if it had caused those sorts of gameplay changes. Some specific examples of tags are: nocrits nodmgspread bots norespawntime respawntimes Note that setting a tag through the config file may not be enough. These are tags that the engine thinks it is responsible for setting, so it may well try to turn them off even if you set them with the sv_tags variable. Sorry. It’s our opinion that any plugin that is capable of detouring our code to effect the rule changes should also be capable of ensuring that the proper tags are set as well. You’ll need to find some workaround, or work with the plugin provider to resolve that. Thanks for understanding.
