I did host a server once and played from the same computer. the server did show up in the server list and i had added it to favourites by external ip +port. it also showed on the lan with the internal ip.
i dont know how i did that back then ;-)
But even so because i played from the same computer i caused lagg,
So that would be the biggest reason not to host your server from the same computer you play on.
even if you play on different computers, it might be that you cant see your server in the list because you play under the same external ip. but other people could see your server and even if you cant see it if you can add your server to gametracker then you port forwarded correctly and your server is in the serverlist!
Even if you cant see it!!
