I don't mind if he keep bumping the thread with these troll posts. A bump is a bump.
Dan (needaxeo) has been trolling these mailing lists for the past 2 years. He doesn't want Valve to take any action because he gave up on his own community and wants to see everyone else fail. He thinks no one can host a better server and we are all trying to make a profit off dirt cheap servers like he did. And he doesn't even play the game anymore so he is just here trolling. Here is the proof when I outed him. https://www.mail-archive.com/hlds_linux@list.valvesoftware.com/msg75063.html https://www.mail-archive.com/hlds_linux@list.valvesoftware.com/msg75067.html He keeps repeating 2 arguments that have been debunked over and over again. - People are not too stupid or lazy to find the server they want to play. If people weren't stupid or lazy they would never have needed to make official servers default, because they would have been smart enough to add "valve" to their tags. Even Valve knows most people are stupid or lazy which is why every Steam chat box says "Never tell your password to anyone" and "the URL you have clicked on is not an official Steam website". - Valve servers are objectively the best. Before this quickplay change, none of the official servers were even top 200 on Gametrackers. On Wed, Oct 15, 2014 at 10:46 AM, Frank <ad...@gamerscrib.net> wrote: > Haven't you learned yet?
