They won’t reply, nor will anything be changed with Valve servers. Personally I’d like to see the amount of them cut in half and I believe the suggestion was to remove it from defaults after a specified amount of time played but as I said…never happen.
Replying as you did just makes me feel like something will happen, kinda like waiting for a unicorn to appear.

It's been a few months now and as usual, nothing has happened. I know that as without being a server op, I would find Valve servers distasteful. There's something about being votekicked for killing players on the other team that just makes the gameplay experience unsatisfactory.

There is a new quickplay category, featured, that represents the featured maps for a given campaign. In order to have your server in this category, you need to be running the mapcycle mapcycle_featured_maps.txt, and have the special string 'featured' in your quickplay tags. Today's update also introduces contracts, which currently require players be on official servers to complete. Unfortunately, our current setup makes it very difficult to restrict features like this other than in an all-or-nothing manner, and we determined this was necessary to protect the system from immediate abuse. We agree this is not ideal. We are continuing the look at the situation with community servers and how we can better support passionate communities, but currently have nothing to announce. - JohnS _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds
