We've created a discord bot you can invite to your own server.

Add it to your own discord server by visiting the link for your region:

EU: https://serveme.tf/discord
NA: https://na.serveme.tf/discord
SEA: https://sea.serveme.tf/discord
AU: https://au.serveme.tf/discord

Once it is in your discord, link your discord profile to your serveme profile with /serveme link. Now you can use the /serveme book command to book a reservation. Without any extra options it just uses your most recent settings, but you can also ask for a specific server, map, config, etc..
The RCON is shown to you privately, but the other settings are shown to the channel. There are buttons to end or extend the reservation and a link to our web-based RCON tool is provided.

When you end the reservation, the message gets edited and a link to the zipfile with the logs and demos is shown. That allows anyone that played in the reservation to download the zipfile.

For SDR, the server needs to be started with:

-enablefakeip

Some updates since august 2025

• Fancy kill feed in Web RCON and log viewer, the live log and RCON output now shows actual TF2 kill icons (headshots, backstabs, all the weapons), player names colored by team with links to their Steam profiles, and class icons. You can click any line to see the raw log if you need it. Screenshot
  
• Log search and filtering, you can now search through the live log and uploaded logs. Filter by player name, weapon, or any text. Keyboard shortcuts (/ to search, Esc to clear). Screenshot
  
• Cloud downloads for games you played in, The "Games I played" section now has download links for demos and logs, so you don't need to hassle the person who booked the server.
  
• SDR eligibility explained, we've had to restrict who can use SDR, because it's being used to dodge bans with alts. The SDR page now tells you exactly why you can or can't use SDR instead of just saying no. Screenshot - Check serveme.tf/sdr | na.serveme.tf/sdr | au.serveme.tf/sdr | sea.serveme.tf/sdr
  
• More payment options, added Google Pay, Apple Pay, and Amazon Pay in addition to PayPal and credit/debit cards. Shows up automatically if your browser/device supports it. Screenshot

Massive DDoSes in the Chicago area are affecting entire ISPs, flooding their links to certain datacenters. These attacks aren't aimed at us, and aren't even aimed at the datacenters we use. But the size of these attacks are causing traffic jams on the big links providers use to connect to datacenters.
This causes 1 minute - 2 minute packet loss events for players on affected ISPs.

For the moment we suggest you either switch Chicago datacenter if these attacks affect your game, or play in a different region. CHI1 and CHI2 are in one datacenter, CHI3 and CHI4 are in another and CHI5 is in yet another one.

I don't expect it to be an issue. With high polling rate for a mouse, when you move it, you're sending 1000s of updates per second to a game that didn't expect to have to handle that. With high polling rate keyboards you're limited by how fast you can type, so a higher polling rate will just get the info to the game a little sooner, but the amount of information is the same.

You're right, I was thinking of the dedicated plugin but it's already rolled into tf2-comp-fixes. The setting is disabled by default, but the RGL configs enable it.

Intentional, because it's not part of the gameplay affecting plugins allowed by RGL and ETF2L.

Open to adding it, if for example jumpers would really like it. Or RGL/ETF2L could add the plugin to their rules/configs.

The slop bots demand more data. Have you considered putting slower pages behind a steam login, or the whole site perhaps?

At serveme.tf, every 2 weeks ChatGPT downloads all the maps, all 100GB of them.

Such a different tone compared to your top 100 slurs.tf profile. The adminstrator of logs.tf is zoob.

OK, done.

Some QoL updates

• Player information on the MOTD page
  
• Real time server information for your reservation. Server traffic and FPS, player pings + loss
  
• Improved kick messages in case you're on our (or the league's) naughty list
  
• Support map uploads larger than 100MB with direct uploads to our CDN

Gsync on, vsync on, limit fps to 3-5 below max refresh of your monitor with the nvidia control panel.

• !lock/!unlock chat commands. !lock sets a random new password and bans people that try to join a locked server. Helps prevent match invading. !unlock changes the password back and allows people to connect again.
  
• !unbanall, guess...
  
• OpenAPI / Swagger UI interactive API documentation

Yes, whenever your FPS is above 60, the 144Hz monitor will be smoother and more responsive than the 60Hz one.

No.

144Hz is so much better than 60Hz, even just moving your cursor on the desktop.

• Improved ping system. Available with the "Server Pings" button when making a reservation. Automatically starts pinging the servers when you open the reservation page.
  
• SDR finder. If you're unable to connect to the real server IP, or don't want the reservation owner able to see your real IP, this allows you to find the SDR IP:port. Available in each serveme region at the URL /sdr
  
• NA only: Checkbox to disable RGL's kick-if-you-are-not-recording-demos plugin. This plugin is a requirement for RGL matches, so make sure to keep this unchecked for serious RGL business.
  
• Include ban reason when kicking banned players. Full ban list viewable here.
