Spam servers all over "Find servers"
Hello dear CS 1.6 players and more,

I'm probably not the only one experiencing this issue, which is why I decided to write this post.

Does anyone know of a FIX for this problem with server spam/ghost servers showing up in 'Find Servers'?

A lot of servers appear with an unusually high player count (e.g., 126/127, 63/64, etc.), and they're definitely not real servers but just ghost ones.
These servers show up with an unrealistically low ping, and when you try to join them, you're redirected to a completely different server.
Most of them are Russian servers, where you can't be sure about security and feel uneasy about joining.

The only servers I use are the ones saved in my 'History' and 'Favorites,' but otherwise... it’s very hard to find a real server on 'Internet.'

Is there any known solution? What do you think?


Thank you!
