Dont default sort multiplayer by name

I think multiplayer really needs a default sort by anything other than name (number of players, playtime, lowest ping to user, whatever).

Having a default sort by name encourages people to keep coming up with things with a lower sort order. There is even a bunch of servers starting with spaces now in addition to the many using symbols at the start, solely to get near the top of the list.

It also doesn't really help a new player finding a suitable server.

Ping would be a good one to consider.

The downloaded list does not contain latency information afaik, and even if, it would be Server-MatchingServer not Server-Player.
