GAME.NET 04 Desert Combat

[mazvaz]

Can someone please explain this very strange thing for me please.

How is it i can see this server, on gamespy, all seeing eye, and through the game, and can also join this server no problems, but no-one else can, it is always empty, which is lovely for practice but none of my clan can see this server, and if they try to join by ip it says server not found, or failed to connect.

are they GAME.NET subscribers?

 

[mazvaz]

No, but how would the server know who is and who isn't ???

You can only ping the server if you are logged in, so if you are not a subscribe you probably cannot ping it so it might not even appear in their browser.
