Invalid fake clients claim

Hello GT,

http://www.gametracker.com/server_info/50.7.230.70:27015/

2 days ago, Valve updated the TF2 engine and broke Garry's Mod. Those players who kept their Garry's Mod client open did not get updated and could still join servers, while other players were left without being able to launch Garry's Mod. See: http://garrysmod.com/post/26058605084/garrys-mod-is-broken

A day later, a patch was issued that allowed players to get back in Garry's Mod but couldn't join servers that weren't up to date. The server was updated, but there have still been problems with clients connecting and crashing due to whatever was changed in the engine. This client crashing caused the server to report that there were still clients connecting through the Source Query, but not through A2S info queries.

Servers have been double checked to be up to date and the problem has not persisted, but GT has invalidly claimed the server to have intentionally used fake clients or other methods to report higher player counts, when the entire situation was beyond our control. In fact I noticed lots of other servers in the top rankings who were having this problem as well but their ranking stays intact.

Please fix this mistake.
