lol, that should be a nice plugin, if lots of players leave on map x, map x gets a point down, if lots join on a map, it gets a point up, start with 10 points on all, the top 10 most popular are interspaced regulary, and the top 10 least popular: delete from circulation (or put those on a separate server thats dead on its own cycle, some ppl like those maps...).

or instead of over-complicating things you could simply make it a leave/join ratio and have it lower the percentage by x amount.
I was a commando you know.

And yes, Lotus are terrible servers. They run fake clients which always show a minimum of either 31/33 players or 23/24 players depending on how many players are actually on the server. They also run a bot quota of 16 players and then disguise the bots as real players and give them fake pings and steamids. I believe I mentioned this earlier in the thread.
Clearly though people are derp enough that it is working out ok for them.
About that bot thing, it's actually pretty clever. I was on this server earlier today, some random server where I wanted to test something out. And I noticed like, it was full of SourceOP members. Or that's what it seemed like. Off the top of my head, I remember seeing the names of Takara, Sdogg, LT. DEATH, Piggy, some Pacfong guy, some guy called Primo_IT, and I was like wow, what a coincidence. But upon further inspection, I realised they were all bots. Pretty creepy imo, but I'm sure it would fool most people

Like they're not bots on the SourceOP servers. Well, at least DEATH is.

You were a pyro bot on that server, you taunted when you reflected my rocket. It was creepy finding out you/it was a bot

bots are idiots
they taunt 20% of the time regardless of what situation they're in and what's happening around
