Anyone sick of joining fake player, premium, bot servers
28 replies, posted
I am getting sick of joining servers that advertise 23/24 players and when you join its either filled with bots or is empty. It also says "Type !premium to get a trial of our donor features" Doesn't anybody play decent servers anymore. We have setup our own server yet nobody hardly joins, probably due to the fact that we don't advertise 20 fake people.
There was a blacklist generator that had a bot scanning through servers and blacklisting ones using those
Not sure what happened to it, but was great if you actually want to play a good game
Truer words have never been spoken
I used to be, except I learned how to avoid them. You've got to check the server tags. If it says saigns, gravity, (no)respawntimes, bots, etc., you know to avoid it. Also, a server saying there is only one slot left is [u]usually[/u] a fake one. The server info is a sure indication; bots have a score of 0 and fake players don't show up.
Valve should just purge them.

All that messing around just to get in a decent game, valve should do something about this.
I'll play on your server OP!
Just blacklist all the night-team and saigns servers and you should be fine.
No.
Saigns.de is best

I'll join
If you want a GOOD vanilla server, the furry pound is good.

they make their sudden reappearance after a while though.. sucks
I'm still waiting for a sv_pure 0 filter so I can play without all my model/material fixes getting borked.
Hey guys there's a thing called blacklisting servers and clicking "View Game Info" to ensure that fake playercounts don't get the best of you.
However, as for finding good servers (as opposed to avoiding bad ones), I agree. I've only got a handful of main servers and they tend to be empty. Quite a shame.
The only thing we dont have of vanilla is the respawn times, we run instant respawn, it's boring to wait but it runs all valve maps.

Advertising.avi
this is why you make yourself a nice little list of favorites and stick with it

The only reason I put that there is because people asked for it.

Oh, you're the thread owner. Shower me with dumbs now.
Spoiler: Servers with bots ALMOST ALWAYS lack the 'bots' tag. I have it blacklisted and the shit still makes it through the filter.
It seems that threads like this pop up frequently here.
I don't have this problem because I have a favorites list.
If I make the huge mistake of actually playing on the Nighteam servers instead of just trading, then I have the same problem. I stick to my favorites for playing though.
Nighteam, Lotus and saigns all use premium I think.
pokemon fun center is a good vanilla server, if you can find it.
Hooray for Favorites.

Lotus isn't.
Other 2 are.
I find it funny how Furry and Weaboo servers often have better communities and are generally more fun to play on then a lot of other servers. all you have to do is disable sprays on Furry servers and mute Micspam on Weaboo servers and you can have a great time on them.
I'm sticking with UKCS from now on after playing on those saigns servers.

UKCS is alright, found a UKCS KotH extreme server and it was good, added to my favorites
