Im tired of not seeing any players in any tempest servers. Just change it back. I would rather have an active server than medpacks dropping on the ground. 32 players is great, but if it takes 24 to get me some tempest time....well okay.
Is it really that big of a deal to ppl to have this mod....i mean, YOUR SERVER TRAFFIC IS DEAD.
I used to be able to come home at 5pm, jump on a raging tempest server and have fun. Now nothing for the past 3 weeks. I have to wait until like 9-10 pm...and even as of late, sometimes is empty then. Pathetic.
I just don't see much use in whining and moaning about things we can't control, like what valve does with thier code, and instead use the things WE control to fix it.

I have re-bypassed the custom tab. I will do this until valve delists us. Then all tempest servers are going stock respawn and 24 players.

Then all tempest servers are going stock respawn and 24 players. Can they go custom again when a new way around is found? I still dont understand why valve us fucking with "custom" servers in TF2. Razor wrote:Killing people is good therapy.

seconded for truth.
Why don't we simply accept a place on the custom tab, and stop trying to break onto the main tab? As long as there is internet, there will be visitors. Safety + Peace

never noticed this as i haven't had time to play in weeks... but valve are insane. whoever their management is, to allow stupid petty things like this divide the community and threaten the game, it's beyond belief... do thy want their company to die? do they understand what a customer is and how they make a company money? do they also understand copyright laws? a company can't prevent customisation. it defies the whole point of purchasing something... honestly... whoever finances valves operations really should be reconsidering their investment. it's little things like this that will lead to their long term demise. and rememeber just because you have a good product doesn't mean you're guaranteed to make money. or even survive... yeah, i'm a cranky 'oul fucker. deal with it.

You have to understand that modifying certain aspects of the game and saying "it's better this way" counts as direct insult to TF2's development team, their near lifetime experience and hard work, and 10 years in development of said game. However, they still allow you to make them. These modifications are a privilege, not a right - and they just ask you not to replace their hard work while at it. With that in mind, Valve might still want to give players choice regarding whether or not they want to play with such features, and exposing new-coming players to "default" setup firsthand - the gameplay that has proven to be statistically both fun and balanced gameplay.
tl;dr: Valve knows better.

Ask them why the servers have been empty for three days now.
It's so sad. /sigh
I've said it before, and I'll say it again : I hate STEAM!

Will it help if we change the name of our servers? Something with a ~ or something in front of it to give it a higher priority in the listing? If you support John McCain and/or George W.

People don't sort by names, they sort by players.
