Allow the blacklisting of servers

In some games you can add a server to your blacklist. When a server is blacklisted, it doesn't show up when you try to find a server. You can re-add it by removing it from the blacklist, though.

I like this option because I repeatedly join the same servers where you have some admin abuse or some stupid 12121213132131890381290381290808302938120381298 reserve slots such that no sub-atomic particle can even get in.

As always there will be opposition to an idea to the effect of stupidity such as, "JUST REMEMBER THEIR NAMES DERP" - yeah I don't have all day and there are a crapload of servers.

Agree or disagree with this idea and let me know why. Much love.

    Aye, made a thread about this too. I just want to blacklist the servers that have that instakick bullshit going on after i;ve loaded in the map and everything. Its fine if they want to annoy the fuck out of people, i just dont like being fooled twice and giving them repeat visitation. (its not like i'm going to remember all the servers that do this)

    I don't want a country filter, per se. If I am up late I play on American servers (even if the lag is often debilitating).

    I've no problem playing on French and German servers, even if I don't really understand what they're saying... My only issue is when you join a server you get repeatedly kicked from because of reserve slots or places where the admins are pricks to people. I've not had an admin be nasty to me but I've heard them be disrespectful to people because they were new and didn't know what to do, which makes me not want to support their server.

    I seem to be banned from tactical Gamer, I get kicked when I join, sometimes with more than 5 slots open.
    If I can't play on a server, I'd rather not see it as a potential play option in the browser.

    Tactical Gamer only has 16 public slots while their server is set at 23 slots. I have no idea why they would do such a thing. Maybe they just want to watch the world burn. This server is actually the reason why I want a blacklist.
