Favorites wont show up

[Zorbanos 1st MRB]

Everytime i get in game in DoD:s my favorite servers wont show up.

None of the boxes are checked, and every time i hit refresh it says no servers responded to this query.

Wtf?!

First thing is to restart steam. Occasionally it gets itself all worked up, and in all the drama, forgets to display a few things.

Secondly, you might want to wait a little time. Every once in a while, for whatever reason, the server which handles users favorites lists goes down. It is usually restored quickly.

If that does not help, you will need to re-add servers to your favorites manually.

As to why it happens, the answer is simple. Valve.

I myself notice from time to time that my favorites list disappears.

Blaming Valve is the quick escape, that even though it is entirely understandable, prevents a potentially complicated technical explanation, that in all likelihood, has nothing to do with the end-user anyways.
