Do servers get taken off after awhile or something? I used to go to a certain one that I can't remember but I am using what I can remember about it to search for it but so far it is not working.

Servers and maps are hosted by individuals, so yes they come and go. We (the project) do not host any maps.

Also, some maps are run in a rotation. So one map will run for a certain period of time, then it shuts down and another maps runs for a while.

There are also a couple servers that let the players pick a map from a list and the server will restart with that map.
