Since the latest update I haven't been able to see the GTFO servers, they are greyed out, anyone else getting this?

Yeah, I believe the GUID changed or something... completely farcical - these guys make Valve look smart.
When people ask me "Plz" just because it's shorter than "Please" - I feel perfectly justified to answer "No" because it's shorter than "Yes"

quote from DICE dev:

This isn't the game server, this is their GUID's getting "stuck" at EA which means they can't come back online again. This is usually hidden with Tuesday maintenance but last night we had some server issues which caused a number of game servers to lose connection with EA and they couldnt come back online again when the connection was re-established.

We are working on better solutions to free "stuck" GUID's to prevent having to restart all EA servers but a time scale isn't available at this time.

Here they all are, safe and sound! (Although do all seem to show as Hardcore??)

If you have your search filter with 'X' on Full and Empty servers your favourites list will show all filtered-out items in a shade of grey. Searches in the main list will just be omitted.

It does seem though that they are very rarely used. I think the past few weeks i've seen 1 or 2 full on rare occasions and every so often you'll see one with 3 or 4 in there, otherwise they just sit about empty and lonely :(

Have they sorted out the auto-join fill up server thing again? As when we used to get 6/10 people on a server they'd suddenly fill up and we'd move to another one and do the same and get that full.

servers become hardcore when a feature is disabled, in our case it is killcams and therefore the servers automatically become hardcore
