[bf1942] Slow reports from GameSpy

[Lee Latham]

you might want to check out some of the public web interfaced traceroute 
pages out there and put your server address in to get some measurements 
from different places.  if you're server's dead, this is probably because 
the ping is high for other people, if not yourself.

which is irritating.
