While I agree with what you are saying, what does cl_connectmethod have to

This is a repeat of the "Custom Tabs" fiasco. Except Valve probably
won't
remove it this time because they can wave the evidence that a minority
of
players use quickplay, despite the fact that quickplay has a monopoly on
new players and without them your server is dead. Your current players
won't play TF2 forever.
I saw this coming a mile away when Valve released the cl_connectmethod
convar. As I have said time and time again, Valve has obligations to
server
owners as well as players. We, or at least I, bought TF2 expecting not
to
have our hosting abilities crippled so much.

Why?
Adding a "Valve servers only" checkbox (that's checked by default) is
going
to hurt enough (and only those communities that are playing by the
rules;
cheating communities will just steal *more* traffic from the
legitimate
communities).
It's now all but impossible to try to retain a client who joined via
Quickplay (and those are the clients we *need* to retain). We can't
show
them our website. We can't even allow them to use a menu to jump to
another
one of our servers anymore.
Please think about what you're doing. If your intention is to harm the
good
communities, you're doing a fine job at it.
