Suggested long ago (years) on spuf to have a groups tab in game server browser, with the servers of the steam groups one is member off. Server owners simply can then add their servers to their group pageĀ  on steam and the players in the groups get the servers they are member off. Maybe even

Like l4d2, where people just add steamgroups to their servers which they are not the owner from. If that happens, it will be the end of a normal group based tab for clients. Let them fix that first or make a solution for it before attempting to do tf2. In the end i also prefer a dns solution,

I have a few questions.. Does -insecure take you out of quickplay? Also curious if alltalk breaks it as well. I setup a quickplay server and had 14 people on it (friends that i invited in). We played for quite awhile and didn't get any quickplay traffic. Server is vanilla other then added

Alltalk has no bearing on quickplay. Valve learned their lesson on that after the Custom tab fiasco :P On Sun, Jul 10, 2011 at 9:36 PM, Harry Strongburg harry.h...@harry.luwrote: On Mon, Jul 11, 2011 at 12:16:29AM -0400, E3pO wrote: I have a few questions.. Does -insecure take you out of
