maybe reinstall halo (?)

like Dark Cloud that is really odd...

maybe if you have a firewall....I'm honestly not sure.

interesting, could have something to do with your net connection, if you have 56k or maybe just your internet provider having trouble, cause i have cox cable internet, and they have some pretty bad days where it will lag like a mother on halo pc, and kick people like a mad man

there are things called "rcon" passwords and those allow someone to ban, kick, etc.. from a remote computer (this is good if your running a ded server...

maybe someone found out your rcon password and banned everyone for fun

maybe it was the person who quit last

other than that i have no idea

srry

thats a good point, cause it seems odd that only one person was left, so i would guess that yeah, it was prolly that,

unless...were you having like some slow connections like getting on the internet when it happened?

hmm, yeah, that is really weird... I go with the 'someone else' found the rcon password theory... then they quit... that would explain why only 1 person stayed and then quit...

hey, if you have cable... mind if I know fast your connection is (not what they tell you)? heres a link to find out... just tell me what you get in cps.

congrats. you have 22.2 kb/s... :(

but all you have to do is take your cps and divide it by 117 (lol no joke), and you have your kb/s...

a.r.g.h. just go to whatismyip.com to get your REAL ip...

and
1. just because you have cable doesnt tell you anything
2. if you 'know' what your speed is because you got the specs from concast... oh, whoops, did I say that? *ahem* *coughcoughcough* comcast, then what you 'know' is probably wrong. just go to that page, it takes like 5 seconds.
