Halo Mac: where are all the game servers?
After playing Halo on my PC for years, I decided to get a copy of Halo for Mac (iMac 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo). I installed it from a CD that I bought used on ebay, then downloaded and installed the universal binary. It's build 1.00.06.0612.
When I look for game servers, it finds only a small fraction of the number of servers that I find on Windows. All the game servers I see on my Mac are apparently also present in Windows. I even joined a server from both computers at the same time to confirm that it's not exclusive. Gameplay is fine, although I need to tweek the graphics.
It's not an issue of being banned, since servers one is banned from still show up in the server list. I know this all too well.

Response by poster: There's a 1.5.2 update that fixes lots of bugs.
That did it.
Now, what can you do about the noobs?

Look for the admins on clanhalo.net and ask them. There's an older set of Halo players floating around there, but I'm old too and have forgotten their names.

You should also join clanhalo.net, which is Mac centric, and ask this question there.
