CoD: United Offensive Server Tip

Activision sends a tip for Call of Duty: United Offensive server administrators:
Several of the servers out there right now for Call of Duty: United Offensive are running 32 or more players on connections that don't support that many clients. As a result, players are getting a poor experience playing Call of Duty: United Offensive and thinking that the lag is due to the game when it's actually the connection that the servers are running on.

We'd like to ask server admins to please start with a smaller client number and work their way up to the max that their server supports rather than starting with a high client number and working their way down. This will make sure that your server runs at the best possible speed, and will also make sure that players get a good experience on your server and with the game overall.

Maybe on first run the server could do a system test and small bandwidth test then guestimate settings... Of course anyone with know how will tweak settings but simply not allowing any idiot to host a server means fewer servers which can be a bad thing.
