Dear TF2 team,
Would it be possible for you to communicate a status as to if/when the 
quickplay changes you made four months ago will be reverted to allow all 
community servers to be included in quickplay again by default?
Fletcher Dunn had stated when this change was made that it would be temporary, 
yet four months later as community server after community server dies out, 
we've had zero communication on the subject from the TF2 team.
Why are you no longer talking to server operators?
Please, guys - communicate to the server community that has supported the game 
for so many years. If this is going to be the "default" quickplay configuration 
from now on, at least let us know so we can start shutting off servers as 
opposed to continuing to pay for hardware in the hopes that we'll be treated 
fairly again. We're hanging on here and financially supporting servers in the 
hopes that we'll be able to fill them again someday soon, but if there's no 
more hope left for us, at least let us know.
Thank you.
- JT
P.S. If I could express to you the extreme sense of hopelessness you are 
imposing on the good communities that have built themselves around TF2, I 
would. We love this game, and we see the "culture" that so attracted us to it 
for all these years slipping away. Please consider the harm you're doing to the 
"good" communities out there but effectively diverting half of the player 
traffic away from even finding us.  Spending years building a community only to 
have the rug pulled out from under us has depressed some of our members so much 
that they've walked away from the game all together.  These are long-term TF2 
players who - if they can't play on the community servers they helped build - 
are not going to play anymore at all.
