Rules:

1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Compared to other companies, Valve let the community use alternative community servers. Even if Valve does not care about the game anymore (sigh, one of may all time favorites), it's possible to maintain community servers. This is something any other game wish to had, without hacking the system; it's just part of the game. And people can even use modded communities and there exist some really cool stuff (admittedly I never tried them, I would play the game if it didn't have the bot problem).

I mean look at the most played servers list, look at that: https://tf2-servers.com/servers/players/
A complete dedicated community with its own list of servers: https://teamwork.tf/community/customserverlists

But please stop review bombing other games with the cry to fix TF2. Those reviewers should get a review ban for misusing the review system.
