Boy it sure would be nice if Valve would do some decent things, like:

1. QA their releases before launching them out into the wild
2. Include sample server and startup configs
3. Not rely on the server-hosting community to do its QA work for them

We are all being used. I won't participate in this debacle any further. Thus 
far, they're using us as guinea pigs. And I won't have it. 

I'm pulling down this L4D hunk of absolute crap until Valve decides they should 
do right by the people who are their bread and butter. I will suggest everyone 
else do the same. Anything else will simply promote Valve's bad behavior.

19:49:24 sv_unreserve
19:49:24 Server was reserved for -26485 more seconds.  Reservation cleared.

But when I connect to it:


Connecting to xxxxxxxxxxxxx...
Server using lobbies no, requiring pw no, lobby id xxxxxxxxxxxx
Server is reserved for members of joining lobby
