Don't do anything rash! I think a lot of people are having the same problem -it's to do with Gamespy, not the end-user!

Can anyone else chime in - who was complaining about this in the last few days?

So you have no more problems Blood? K. Just clearing that up. I've had that problem before and I have come to believe... yes... it is Gamespy. Gamespy can be pretty screwy at some times. I think it's your connection vs Gamespy that wasn't working. Only certain connections do it time to time. I think my router was interfering with it once. K. And yes it's true... hopefully I'm back.

Bus, this might be a bit drastic but: format your pc.

You can find it in the "Social" channel, though it goes down while we sleep. (Stupid loud fans!)

You can directconnect, I barley use gamespy. It just works so well that I prefer to type the server's IP over it. :)
