This complaint about economics is a red herring that "404 user not found" was just using to slander us. Valve had no problems enforcing the economic rules before by making plugin given hats and weapons invisible in the game. If particles were really such a big deal, they would've made them invisible already. They already actively enforce economic rules in CS:GO, a game where community servers are also forced to be inferior to official ones. If throwing community servers into the browser solved the econ problem, then why didn't they remove invisible hats and weapons? So the reality is that Valve still polices the economy regardless of community servers being ghettoized or not.
Also, back when plugin hats were still possible and rampant, we never used it. So to paint us as some kind of serial anti-valve rule breaker is simply wrong. I think at this point there is no real solution that Valve is interested in doing, otherwise they would have done so a lot sooner now that it has been what, about 3 years since community servers were removed from quickplay? The idea to have white-listing cost money has been suggested many times before and while it is a real solution, Valve does not seem to be interested in this given the inaction. As I mentioned earlier, the most we could hope for is to have them throw in a few community-server only contracts. But even if Valve somehow agreed with the idea, I don't think it would be enough to stop the massive decline that's going on right now.
