Why should they be listed as private servers? I see a theme here of
punishing users who wish to "protect" their servers from being abused
and by-and-large be a good net citizen by taking messures to stop their
servers joining in a DDOS.

We should be promoting the whitelsited servers and clearly and obviously
stating how to get added to the whitelist.

With the work Jeff has done the process to add an IP is relatively easy
and it DOES accomodate dynamic IPs.

So again, can you please tell me why they should be hidden from the
nearest server listing?
