Why do servers have a --- ping?
Makingblah:
But I don't get it, my server is up, my ports are forwarded correctly (I'm quite sure of it), yet my ping is displayed as ---, some people can join and others can't. Any ideas?

Where do you live? Do you live far away from the people trying to connect to you?

Even though your ports are forwarded correctly and all, it's just that people may have a bad connection to you.
I almost have the same problem, but I don't think my ports are forwarded correctly.
So in that case, many people aren't able to join my server, but the people who could just have a good connection to me.
Since your ports are forwarded correctly, then you should be able to get many people on your server. (Way more than me)

I live in ireland. But I've been able to host servers with tons of people (30-40 people at times) before. Why should it stop now?

Hm. Maybe your modem or router is messing up
or the wires are sorta unplugged?
