What I do is try different servers out, you'll eventually find a good one. When you do, keep it in your favorites list, write the name/IP down, whatever it takes to remember it. Then join that server when there's space available. I used to cycle through maybe 5 different servers when I played TFC back in the day. The bonus is, if it is a good server, lots of the same people will frequent it, and you'll start to recognize people, and they you. It's pretty cool.
