There are many "logical" explanations for this. Players might only go off
their histories list and do not understand the concept of an IP. Or they
might only use the favorites popup when you leave a server. Or they would
just assume the server shut down and find the task of searching through
thousands of servers too daunting.
I'm sure "most players" are at least as intelligent as you, if not more so.
I see no evidence to explain why you can find a server and they can't
Feel free to explain your vast intellect, but I'm sure us mere mortals
will find
your server if we need to, however much you believe otherwise.
The idea that someone only joins a server from the favourites list?
Now, come on. Think about that Einstein. How did they join the server to
add it to the favourites? If they did that, they can do it again.
Most players will tolerate small imperfections in older servers. Users are
far more likely to tolerate occasional ddos and the increasing lag spikes
Well, then there's no need for you to switch host or change IP then, is
there?
