I do play, and often. I too sort by ping and players, which I then also look at the player names on the server before joining (many servers are obviously using bots and such as the names are way predictable). I'm just saying, that the constant de-list comments to Valve are becoming so frequent, that I'm sure they're even deleting full threads without reading them.
Perhaps a better option, is to provide Valve with the real problem and possibly a few options, like being able to ignore/de-list servers on the client side. I know that I would like that feature and it seems simple enough, just save a list of IP:Port of ignored servers to a file and filter them out (perhaps with an option to do this or not on the filter window). I'm sure Valve would be more receptive to real issues and possible solutions than the constant server complaints we've been seeing. Personally, once I find a few servers I like, they make it into my favorites and I rarely go looking for new ones. But, that's just me. -- HoundDawg UnitedAdmins.com Forums: http://forums.unitedadmins.com Steam: http://steam.unitedadmins.com Wiki: http://wiki.unitedadmins.com Carl wrote: > You speak as though you haven't ever played a source game.
