This is an issue with the current engine. Nothing you can do other than
wait for valve.

I'm of the same mindset, but unfortunately we lost our old one during server

Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] HTML MOTDs not rendering?
My lesson learned after trying countless of hours to write motd.txt:
if it works, don't touch it!
I have never experienced that the problem was the webpage to be shown itself.

If it helps, the MOTD itself is located here:

Understood. I've rebooted the server numerous times and also restarted my
client as well.
What I find weird is that the client _HAS_ the correct HTML for the MOTD, but
just isn't displaying it at random!

I found that I sometimes have to shut down or/and atleast wait a few
minutes before I'm able to read a new. Not sure if it's client side or
server (SRCDS) side.

Hi all,
This was touched on in a previous post - Does anyone know a solution for MOTDs
not rendering (just a gray box, not even a background/plain text shows).
I've had this happen to me with both HTML motds and plain text contained in the
motd.txt file.
The weird things are that:
a) some people can see the MOTDs fine.
b) right clicking the box and hitting 'view source' shows the HTML content of
the correct MOTD page
c) I've gotten it to show up for me exactly once.
Running our servers on Linux, there's no flash content or ads in the motd, and
they render fine in a webkit-based browser.
I've tried both just the MOTD url in motd.txt as well as a META refresh to
redirect. both have the same result.
If anyone knows of a fix, I'm all ears as we're in a situation where most of
our traffic is passthru Quickplay, and I'd like to at least inform them about
server rules and the existence of our other servers/extended/non-tf2 community
Thanks!
