I would thank you to keep this civil and not put words in my mouth. I merely pointed out a possible flaw in your logic on this. > The fact of the matter is, people are interested in custom servers. Yes. That fact isn't in dispute. What I was saying is perhaps the number of people interested is less then you suspect. > 2.

Barely enough time for a resonable test to see if the tab worked. It still doesn't change the fact that most custom servers can be found on the internet tab. I love custom servers, yet I don't click the custom tab. Your survey doesn't include people like me. > 3.

So what's to stop you (or someone else) from constantly hitting refresh on either side to artificially increase the "score"? If you doubt that someone would do this, look at the game "Progress Quest" > I'm in this game for the long haul, the two tabs system in my opinion is > setting things up for a long term failure. I'm not doubting your dedication for this game. What I am doubting is your method of proving your opinion. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
