I'm not here to bitch about the fake player count, I don't really care about that. however, I do think it's messing up people being able to get into the server. on West Coast Payload Stocks the player count in the server browser was 33, but when I did the connect > IP thing there was only 23 players on the server.

I only bring this up because it seems it's common now, and earlier players were complaining that they had to do the auto-join thing and when they got in there was only about 24 people on the server.

you can always check the server info, if the player count is at 25, i usually check it, and besides, 23 is a good number of people to play tf2, also, (by what I know on it) The fake players act like ghosts, and they don't affect anything other than the server browser, so you wouldn't have to use the auto-join if there were only 20 or so actual players.

33?

That does not sound right. Especially if it was 33/33 when it was only 23/33.

EDIT:
Thanks for bringing this to my attention, it seems I uploaded a test plugin and forgot to disable it. I have disabled it now and this should prevent the server being full when it's not and the West Coast servers should now once again show up on the West Coast server list (Server browser location filter).
