Plugin Questions
major:
I know there are servers with chat filters. Maybe a head admin of WNx or other servers can shed some light for you. I'm not home this weekend so I cannot effectively test any systems(working from phone/CR-48).
I've never tried/looked into a no camp plugin. Nor seen one on a server. GE:S built in anti-camp isn't the most effective system, but we cannot down a player for using strategy.
As far as the servers not showing up. This is a problem on about half the player base. We also cannot change valves server browser code, its there bug, and its hurting us. I don't remember anyone during development mentioning not being able to see our testing servers(then again, when we used the server it had people in it). So we couldn't foresee or look into a hack to fix it.
There are ways to cheat and fake players, but we don't really endorse that, so will have to research yourself.
Thanks for the work on hosting a server. If no one is able to help you before Monday, ill be home then and I'll see if I can help you.

Thank you! It's been really fun and the server has actually been full several times.
It's here if you want to try it. "Clockwork's License to Kill 24/7. No Voice. No Radar. Stock Maps."
I disabled voice because I believe that its only purpose in a Free-For-All game is to be obnoxious. It's not needed tactically, and I can't moderate it.
The attitude and sense of entitlement some players have is alternately amusing and horrifying. Somebody actually told me today that I was "violating freedom of speech". LOL. I fear for our children if this is the quality of their education. People have already accused me of power tripping, of having "hurt feelings", of being ego driven, all for the "crime" of taking the time to learn how to host a server on my own PC, let them play on it, and then have the GALL to organize it the way I like it. As I said, cursing is fine. "Mod sass" is fine. Trash talk is fine. Literally the ONLY rule I enforce is to expect people not be racist, homophobic creeps. It's amazing.
Not to completely be down on people. Some people have been amazingly nice and fun. Actually, the vast majority are either friendly and wonderful or just totally quiet. :)

I'd say: your house - your rules.
Also "freedom of speech" doesn't mean the freedom to be a douchbag.
Entropy-Soldier:
Recognizing that voice chat is simply another means of communication, one that does not require one to stop playing the game to talk with others, i thought disallowing it was incredibly silly.
Then i read your post again and it actually made a lot of sense as to why you decided to have it.

I'm glad you're happy with it so far. Should do a good job at keeping those chat trolls at bay.
Playing on your server on and off these past couple of days, I have to say you have a really nice setup which surprisingly makes for an enjoyable LTK experience. Good work!
