How are these Rust servers ranked?

By live player count from the most recent five-minute scan, with recent history informing the ordering below the top slots. A server with a large, steady population ranks above one with a spike. No server pays for a position, and the tag or filters you pick do not change the method. The count is a snapshot; the next sweep may move it.

What does the official tag mean?

A server tagged official is run by Facepunch or a partner network, and it appears in the game's own Official tab. Community servers are run by anyone else. The tag helps if you want admin oversight and regular wipe rhythm, but it does not promise vanilla settings; a small number of official servers carry modded tags.

Why does a server's rank change between visits?

Ranks follow population, and populations move with wipe day, time zones and restarts. A server that just wiped can climb hundreds of places within an hour. Returning five minutes later may show a different order, especially near the top where gaps are small. The history column is there to smooth the noise.

Can I list my own Rust server here?

Every public server is scanned and added automatically if it responds to the query. There is no submission and no payment for placement. If your server runs a custom query port or is behind a login, it may not appear until it answers publicly. See contact for corrections.

Rank is the catalogue number: RS-070 is the 70th server on players over the last seven days. The bar under the players is how full the server is; the light curve its players hour by hour. Next wipe is an estimate (~) unless it is the force wipe (FW); hover a time for the reason.
