I can confirm this, I have a minimal server.cfg but as soon as I add sv_tags or sv_allow_lobby_connect_only 0 the server will stand empty, remove those and the server fills immediately.
Apparently only totally vanilla servers are getting any attention ... I know other servers seem to be ok with those cvars but they certainly are not transparent to the matchmaking process. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steven Barker" To: <hlds@list.valvesoftware.com> Sent: Saturday, November 08, 2008 1:47 PM Subject: [hlds] More players with no server.cfg WOW this is turning into some wiered shit, I have been having some problems with my L4D server, by that I mean a lack of players joining, on my home server I start it and people join with in seconds (literally 4/4 within about 5 seconds) however on my externally hosted server it can go for hours unpopulated. My hope server by default game with no server.cfg, no I decided to delete it on my external server too and what do you know, 4/4 in 5 seconds after a restart. My server.cfg is: Can anyone see if anything is wrong here which could cause my server not to be populated with it in?
