## What is GSLT?

GSLT creates a persistent token for a game server. This allows any users who added your server to favorites to join, even if you change your ip address. This is very useful if you change your server/hosting provider.

To fully understand the reasoning behind GSLT, we need to back up a bit to July 2015. [Valve announced that running certain plugins would get your server blacklisted](http://dathost.net/blog/important-information-regarding-our-csgo-servers/), meaning it could not connect to the master servers and people wouldn’t be able to connect to the server.

This created a lot of problems for game server providers, large communities, and anyone providing configurable servers to third parties, as bans were handed out by IP, meaning that an entire machine could be banned because of one malicious or uninformed user.

To address this, Valve is moving the ban at the account level instead of the IP address level, which means that the end-user is always responsible for what they run on their server. Of course, game server providers and the like still have a responsibility to educate their users on these policies, as some might mistakenly upload blacklisted plugins.

An added benefit is that people who add your server to favorite will still be able to find and connect to your server, even if you change hosting provider and/or the IP / port of your server. This is something that previously was impossible.

Yes, all of the tokens on your account will be blacklisted if one of your servers are found to be running a blacklisted plugin. Make sure you read up on Valve’s plugin policies before running a game server so nothing unfortunate happens to your tokens.
