I think the official list is a good concept however new servers were added in the wrong way.
Game Monitor sucked and was inaccurate. My server floated between 100th and 60th best place for a long time, however it never got to below 50th.
However, there were tonnes of servers who were in the top 50 that just sucked..
I don't think the official list servers should have 200 players to just get on the list.. isn't the official list about telling the community what the best servers are in terms of quality, staff, scripting, uptime, knowledge and such not just top 50. I understand it wasn't just top 50 I just think top 50 was rubbish.
I'm not just defending my server, but many servers who had like 30-50 players, with a great community, great staff, great script that just couldn't beat these Russian / Polish / Brazilian servers which were full all the time but the scripting was just awful and there was hackers on them 24-7. Obviously they didn't get official but because of this "top 50" rule they were preventing decent servers getting a chance in hell.
Yeah anyway, as I said, hosted list doesn't need any hosting company to do it. SA-MP can easily do it themselves. It was completely automated on FFS, it can be completely automated on SA-MP. Plus they get all of the money for themselves.
If this was the real GTA multiplayer there would be like multiple developers all getting paid like 100k a year and all having direct access to the single player source so they wouldn't have to hack the memory etc which is alot harder. Kye works hard, who cares if he takes some of this money for himself? When donations on my server are way higher than is needed to run I sometimes update the terms so that I can take 25/50 percent of it if need be, I don't see an issue if the server is online and nothing is not getting paid for.
