SnazIt really hurts that valve is killing this game. And it really just boils down to them being stubborn.
Valve:
"Maybe whitelists are a good idea, but we need to test it out ourselves first guys"
"Maybe class limits are good too, but surely we can't just take your word for it"
"Ok, ok, we know you guys have been playing these staple maps for 9 years, but we need to do our own "research" and figure that out for ourselves."
For Christ's sake, this game is 9 years old and at this point a legacy game, and out of pure stubbornness they are killing the game single handedly.
Idiot.
