Starting a CS:GO community server is pretty straightforward but requires a bit of technical know-how. First up, you gotta have a dedicated PC/server that can run the game 24/7. Install SteamCMD and use it to install and update CS:GO server files. You'll need to configure your server by editing the server.cfg file - this is where you set up all your rules and settings. Don't forget to forward your ports in your router settings to allow players to connect. Finally, launch your server with a batch file or through SteamCMD with your preferred settings. It's all about tweaking until you get the perfect setup!

Quick tip: don't get bogged down in the details. Start with the basics—SteamCMD for server files, config files to set your rules, and make sure your internet can handle the traffic. Once you're up, you can always adjust settings!

Honestly, unless you're super into it, setting up a CS:GO server is more hassle than it's worth. Just join an existing one and save yourself the headache.
