It sure does! This is great news. I wonder if this means Quickplay may not
just be targeting official servers by default at some point in the future?
Would be great if it did!

I agree. TF2 has dramatically lost my vote since the changes to Quickplay

those who spent years hosting genuine servers for little to nothing in
return.
Pretty much the same for my MvM setup. If there's been no activity for 10

Personally I think it's a good idea you have. Whether or not Valve listen

Donations are pretty much a thing of the past for the majority of
communities, unless you happen to run some premium (practically cheating)
in-game benefits model. The donation model was more than feasable back when
the game wasn't free to play and didn't have an in-game store to buy
virtual items
Except as time goes on Valve is taking more control away from server
admins. Plus they appear to be keeping quiet on recent events.

Simple answer is if Valve open more of their own vanilla servers,
prioritise their servers on QP/MM against other non-Valve servers, and as a
result they pay for the costs of upkeep. Nobody has lost out that way,

Exactly, I use the MOTD on my QP servers for monitoring analytics (using

All players have to do is just leave the server, report it and/or blacklist
