People often believe they did it right, when they may have done it wrong.
I'm a witness to this occuring many times, even when assisting someone solve it.

It often ends up being the wrong IP used.

There was one time where I used to have TCP/UDP 28000-28032, which worked.

After I got a router, it somehow stopped working and I had to use TCP/UDP 28000-28030.

You may have the same issue if you're sure you got everything right.

The number of ports used only determines how many players you can have.

Well, yeah. But for some reason it just wouldn't work with 32.

Wait are you saying it wont work with 32 players? If your saying that then i do have 32 players aloud, ill try it with less players, see what happens. Thanks

there is no "did it but it don't work" you just didn't do it right

Oh my dad must of done it wrong... that probobly happened because our computer doesn't have the SAME exact thing that it showed so we guessed the things to press and those files had the right things... so is that the problem?

Check your ports with this:

DL it and check all 4 ports

28000 TCP 28032 TCP 28000 UDP 28032 UDP

Firewall?

I disabled my firewall instead of port forwarding. Have you tried that?(Risky :\)
It worked fine for me.

It's not like you could manage to get a virus through a client in BL =\
