Well I'm kind of disappointed of this resolution.... I've donated about 30-40 dollars to the server and it switched to 24 spots without any notice and the comments I'm getting in this thread are sort of demeaning.

You're implying it's Skial's fault. Valve is the one punishing servers for being 32 slot.

How is it demeaning? Why would you do the report as well as post on the forum? Bottiger gave you an explanation. TF2 was built for 24 servers so Valve caters to servers who only do 24 and not 32. 32 player servers aren't sent as much traffic as 24 player servers, so we have to do this to keep servers populated.

I'm not blaming skial, this server was 32 spots for a long time, always filled up to the 32 slots. Yesterday it's showing 24 spots and I'm really not getting any explanation why in this thread. I don't understand what you mean by the server was being hurt by valve, the server was always full.

I don't know how to make it clearer? Valve sends us traffic through the quickplay feature. 24 player servers get the traffic first, so we switched servers to it. Maybe it's full when you're on, but the goal is to keep the server populated 24/7 as much as possible.

I'm not understanding the switch though if it's already always populated?

Like I said, maybe when you get on, but the reality is not the case.

Not sure about that, I'm in the server A LOT. This server stays fully populated to 32 slots all day and into early early morning. A lot of regulars that get into this server.... Like I said, I donated money to even get into the server when it's full.
