I'm also seeing issues with servers with similar group ids appearing in
the "group servers" list. It's a massive pain for me because I'm in a
group with a very low ID (two digits), so this is adding about 10
servers that I have no interest in to my menu (and everyone else in that
group). I hate to think what people in groups with single-digit IDs are
seeing (presumably this includes Valve's own group).
Wouldn't it be easier to allow a group's owner to set a passphrase
(similar to how sv_search_key worked) for this functionality anyway? It
looks to me like the groupid is just the primary key for that group in
the Steam Community database, which seems a lot like lazy programming.
(Or why not use the 64-bit group ID number? Why do we need three
different systems for identifying people and groups?)

There seems to be a glitch with sv_steamgroup that causes other servers
to appear on the list. I noticed that the first 4 digits of the other
server's groupid was the same as our groupid.
Ex.
Our server: 1234
Other server: 123456
Both are recognized as being part of group 1234. Anyone else see this
happen?
