Quote:like.. are the servers set up to host (only?) versus matches?Unless you connect from a lobby, you will be forced to play whatever mode is already going. You can always change the campaign using the built in voting thing.
Quote:are the servers always full?Almost always.
Quote:if so would there be a way to make a donation-funded exclusive server?Seeing as how we can't even fund the servers we have now via donations, probably not.
Valve has been getting a lot of feedback related to joining community servers and making them group exclusive and such. They'll probably be making lots of improvements in a later update.
You can try the CVAR ms_force_dedicated_server. It requires cheats to be on in order to set the value, but since you're not in a server, just type sv_cheats 1 in your console to set the setting temporarily.
