Guide

Where this list comes from

Each server here lists South Africa as its country. The owner sets it, or it came with the listing from another server directory; we do not guess it from the server’s IP address.

Servers that list no country are not included, so this is not every server run from South Africa. Servers that were offline at their last check stay hidden until you turn off Online only.
