Plenty of others from Valve also read this list. I'm sure they saw the
message.
I also do know they prioritize things. Sometimes it takes about 2
months, sometimes week, sometimes it's end of the pile and nothing
happens. It's all about how urgent something is or how urgent they see
it. I speak from past experiences and most are positive with dealing them.

Fletcher Dunn and Alfred Reynolds from Valve both participate on this
mailing list all the time, so I'm not sure why you think no one from
Valve does.

You must think Valve cares about server operators breaking the
rules they set forth or something. Valve has more important things
to do such as making new hats and promo items.
Here's an idea to contact Valve since they do not seem to read the
mailing list: File a bug on their github (
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Source-1-Games/issues ) making
your accusations there. Someone from Valve is sure to see it!

What Bjorn said is my main concern. I didn't name any
communities since i also think attacking a single community
does not remove the problem.
However, i am deeply furstrated in the matter due to the fact
that these communities get the traffic that is off from
legitimate servers. I know for a fact that my servers could be
full sooner than they are now but the 3 communities next door
are cheating off the traffic.

One of my observations is that people are probably getting
frustrated with the lack of attention or comments on the
matter. I'm sure valve knows about the issue, but not a
lot seems to be done. I have admins on my staff that are
getting extremely frustrated because they go to Quickplay,
and end up in a string of servers that abuse the system
(which they F7) and the folks running "proper" servers get
the short end of the stick because it feels like these
unscrupulous individuals are "stealing" traffic from the
legitimate operators.

If people want to spend their time as the "quickplay
police force", that's fine by me - but I believe Valve has
said on numerous occasions that this mailing list is not
the place to "name and shame" other server operators.
There are proper venues for reporting perceived
violations, and this list isn't one o f them.
Do I think people who aren't setting the proper tags
should be dropped from quickplay? Absolutely.....but
pointing fingers in a public forum just leads to the more
nefarious readers of this list into doing things (like
attacking the servers/community in question) against
operators that may or may not be doing anything wrong.
It's easy to accuse people (and equally easy to falsify
"evidence") - but the only people here whose
responsibility to dole out punishment should be the Valve
team.
So - how about we have enough respect for each other to
use the proper channels for these reports, as opposed to
starting virtual witch hunts.
