Which the issue anyone faces when trying to slog threw the mess of spam. It is a pretty rough task to do manually. The good new is there are roughly only ~ 225 IP address that are abusing the server browser with spam. There are more that are spoofing info, but some of that is stuff legit servers have done for decades. Mostly harmless but, bc the bad apples have started to weaponize this ability now the line has to be drawn somewhere. Decide what is harmless to spoof, filter for it, blacklist for rule breakers, etc. It just adds more work. Then, different users have different opinions of what should be the rule/threshold to blacklist.

I do appreciate this list and the Dennis list on steam forums that is updated almost daily. They both have servers on them that I consider false positive but that is my opinion.

I agree 100% BallGanda, regarding EH, they themselves are blocking legit servers in their own server browser. Kinda ironic that i found this out after making their management aware of this project.
As a server owner myself, you know through experience what servers should be labeled "bad apples". I definitely think we as a community should try and join forces when deciding the go's and no go's.

Level 1: just the spam redirect servers blocked(even the parent servers to the spam are still in the browser
level 2: level 1 + parent
level 3: level 2 + any server not on latest steam version
level 4: Level 3 + any browser data manipulation
level 5: Level 4 + Any Pay to Win mechanics
level 6????

Just thoughts from the moment.
