So upon starting up a listen server shortly after the update, I was flooded with almost constant user connections.
I've never had this before, curious as to why my server showed up as a prime target for so many people? Once people got connected on 2fort, it was a ~100ping server so I doubt it would have shown up at the top of the list unless it was only looking at my local ping of 5 and sorting based off of that?
