    In the "History of Servers" list, I (as well as many other players) have accumulated SEVERAL servers that are no longer relevant, or were visited RANDOMLY !!
    Some servers are displayed for 2 years, and some disappear on their own in incomprehensible situations ....
    Please - add the "DELETE" button (!) to delete the server that is no longer needed (!!!)

    I don't have to dig deep into the game files to find some CACHE and delete unnecessary servers there... that's NOT CORRECT(!)
    That's right - this is when there is a special button for deleting (!)

    You can already use filters to remove obsolete servers from the list (incompatible builds).

    Maybe they could add a "favorites" tab where we could add/ remove servers ? This way they don't have to change anything to the main server list, and only add a tab where we can control what appears.

    As long as the server owner keeps his Server up-to-date the so-called 'old Servers' will re-appear. Otherwise it is advisible to clean the games cache from time to time - also that of STEAM - for reasons of clean Installs/Programs, inluding log files and Saved Games.

    Agree that none of the players SHOULD climb inside the game folders and files, only to remove from the CACHE = an extra server (!)
    A person without experience will make a MISTAKE and delete unnecessary information (!)
    .... this is identical to what I'll tell you = If you run out of FREE HDD SPACE = in the console type "format drive C, enter" :)
    therefore, you - trolls, I ask you NOT to INTERVENE, since your thoughts are out of place here (!)
    We - 100% of the players need a SPECIAL BUTTON to remove an extra server from the list, .... THE SAME BUTTON AS IN SOLO GAME = DELETE SAVE GAME (!!!!!!!!!!)
    Understood theme topic ?!

    Oops... are you talking to us, your friendly fellow players who read your caps lock hysteria on a regular basis ?

    Not true - many players don't care or use workarounds.

    Yes : you want to delete the internet. You can't do that.

    How can you not??
    This is NOT possible???
    Can't make a button
    Then WHY in solo you CAN delete a saved game,
    and in the history of servers = NOT possible ... WHY ????
    Or is it such a mega-problem that it is impossible to read files on the disk and look for what needs to be deleted in them ???
    ahh, I see = you are NOT a PROGRAMMER, BUT A PLAYER, so you do not know all the possibilities of programming ....

    Nope. A deleted savegame will not come back, but a deleted server from a list will just be back on next reload. That's why we have filters.

    If you're a programmer then surely you noticed that the last thing this game needs is another useless UI component. If you so desperatly need buttons you can still buy a shirt...

    One of the posts above shows how you can remove servers from your history.
    But you cannot remove servers from the main server list.

    You have to delete it from your Steam servers favorite list - in your steamclient
