I think the 2nd Saxton Hale server is also not needed. Even during the fuller times it rarely had many players.
I wonder if any server for TF2 will work anymore. We have tried so many things, and basically all that isnt dead is Trade, RJ and well VSH which is dying. VSH didnt use to be the most popular server, it used to be the All Map servers. Thanks to Quickplay they died. Then VSH became it, then it got overloaded with features and plugins while TF2 bleeding players to CS:GO. Pretty much dying now too. The only way I see this community getting new long term players is either creating an own Mod for TF2 or moving on to other games. CS:GO we tried too, but that game also has Matchmaking. Maybe CS:GO Custom maps. As for other games, I dont really know. Unreal Tournament 4 maybe, but other major games do not have Dedi Server files for download.
Adding in my two cents: CS:GO Custom Maps, like Surf/Zombie/Arena/Retakes/Hide&Seek are very popular these days. It'll be hard to break into the market, but hey, any try is worth it at this time.
We can do whatever we want, but i would like more people that can do server stuff, linux based.. that is a problem. Updating websites/pages/forum isn't a issue.
