Servers connected to BN master are prioritized #246

The Blue Nebula master server responds with priority=10 for servers that are connected to the Blue Nebula master server and less than 10 for all other servers that are connected to the Red Eclipse master server. The server browser sorts by default by priority before it sorts by ping. This means that it is easier for BN players to join a BN-only server in the server browser than a RE1+BN server because they are at the top.

The problem is that this splits the community in two and lowers the number of possible players that can play with each other. When someone using BN joins one of the top servers, players on RE will not see that and they will not be able to play with each other.

I think BN and RE1 servers should be prioritized equally and that, while BN is compatible with RE1, as many servers as possible should list themselves on RE1 master instead of BN master to maximize the number of players that can play on the same servers.
