TF2 Server Updates!

[Jeff7890110]

Anytime a server is updated in Team Fortress 2, we will make a post here with changes.

Please note: All changes are for us to see how they are received by the community, nothing is ever going to be permanent.

After any updates we are always wanting feedback, so please let us know if you have any suggestions~
