Paulguy's freebuild

Maybe there are other people having connection problems. I verified port forwarding settings, but that wouldn't explain some people being able to connect and some people not being able to connect. I suppose I'll leave the client open, but I might just completely forget to check for private messages on the IRC thing...
Does anyone else have connection problems to my server?

I used to come to your server but then with the lack of new bricks like the 1 random brick pack and the lack of updating the content door I stoped coming there because of the lack of updating your add-ons and keeping up to date with add-ons.
Main Problem = Not updating constantly/keeping out of date add-ons
paulguy:
RTB should be keeping things up to date...
Unless you mean, I don't add every single add-on possible that you might want.
Also, my stance on custom bricks is mostly to maintain save file compatibility. A brick pack or brick add-on could eventually just get abandoned, and maybe broken in a blockland update, and that save file will end up not loading up properly. If I just keep standard bricks, it should always remain compatible. Also, I suppose it's just a bit of a "purity" thing. Rather than being able to use whatever odd shaped brick I want to achieve a goal, I can take a bit of a challenge and see what I can do with the originals.
For doors, I'm not sure. I guess I could see if there are more out and install those. I honestly haven't even had the server up a whole lot in months until the past week.
But really, I'm curious if people are having connection problems. I won't be home until tomorrow, so I won't be able to fix any settings on my system until then. I ask though because my set up is a bit weird, so there might be something I've overlooked. I pretty much have the dedicated server running in windows XP running in Virtualbox because of the Wine WSACancelAsyncRequest bug, and that might be causing connection problems for some people, I guess?
EDIT: Also, what latency/ping are people getting?

Same here. It's a good, classic, freebuild server. No unnecessary add-ons, either.
I'll try to hit up the server more often; it's always fun to join and build/talk with paulguy.
