Yes, I have considered it, and no. Ads itself are a separate topic/issue
to be discussed, and I don't see an objective basis for this when people
with their companies are involved and are moderating this. This quickly
reminds me of how the UN is arranged and veto powers are being abused
there to absurdity (or rather politics in general).
I don't know you personally, how could I have something against you as a
person?
To be honest, judging from the posts by Patrick, I might as well return
that question. To me (and a few others) it seemed pretty obvious that he
was spreading false information in order to get the csgo motd issue
fixed. It also didn't help the cause that he quickly tried to defame
people who brought up valid concerns about advertising. Outside of this
mailing list even threats of lawsuits from his side have happened. I
also have a few guesses regarding how you get ad support for motds for
various games, so there would be another conflict of interest as well.
No, I do not want that to happen and I don't see this particular
behavior being helpful.

I've been playing Team Fortress 2 long before motdgd even existed,
have you ever considered that the reasons are actually
personal/informal? I go back as far as the days of WON and Team
Fortress Classic. However it seems to me that you have a personal
grudge with me which is very unfortunate.

One of the mods in that group belongs to motdgd. Sorry, not going
to join that group. Conflict of interest. I do not want TF2 to suck.

Many of you thought these changes would just kill off the
"bad" servers which "obviously" excluded your own, and
applauded Valve and even asked for more and more restrictions.
Community players are the minority now. Just last week I
talked to a player who had no idea that community servers
existed even though he was in one.
All the communities that spammed /r/tf2 to get players have
irreversibly died (it would take them years to rebuild now)
and have no incentive to help. In fact I see them insulting
the communities that are still around. If they failed, then
others must too.
When competitive matchmaking comes out sometimes early next
year, that will be the final nail in the coffin for
community servers. There's not much we can do other than to
serve as a warning to never get involved with anything Valve
does beyond playing their game. Don't get involved with
their ecosystem as they will screw you over whenever it
suits them.
