I'm a relatively new server operator. I had two servers up and I had to close one down because nobody can find it. I have to tell every single person the ip if I want them to play on it. It's just not in the server browser, not even when I search for the exact name. Pretty ridiculous. Start a server, pay the money to run it, spend hours setting everything up, finally get it working... no one can find it. Lol
