How do I tell the status of my donation? Also, does being a donating member stop auto team switch?
Thanks

If you can connect to the server (when it's full) directly through the console (connect SERVERIPHERE) <- without the () then your donation status is okidoki. And nope, donation only grands you a reserved slot. Doesn't prevent team switching or auto-kicked if you were wondering.

thanks for the quick response... what about a way to create a steam or desktop shortcut that auto launches into the server this way?

Depends on which server seeing SourceOP has quite a few.
You can create a desktop shortcut pointing to steam://connect/SERVERIP

If you'd prefer having a nice TF2 logo instantly just create a TF2 shortcut and change the URL from steam://rungameid/440 to steam://connect/SERVERIP

The reserved slot should kick in once the server does a map change. Are you sure that you gave the correct SteamID when you donated?

I just confirmed my steam id is correct. My in game name is different from my steam name. I used my ingame name for the donation.

As long the Complete SteamID (example: STEAM_0:0:11715230) is correct, it should all be fine.
Also, how much have you donated?

you have to donate at least 5 dollars
The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the State.

ok the total donation from today and the 4th is now $5.00. Should I just wait it out now or do I need place a cheapskate fix request?
Also, it auto completed my steam id both times.
