<div>I tend to set them anyway, but haven't had any difference without that I've noticed. Would also be interest in peoples ideas if there is any method to which servers respond first on the master server lists, or maybe its worth doing a region sort or something at some point? Just get a few people who can never find a server and you know its just there's too much info for their router to handle.

<div>Sorry if going off at a tangent a bit, just wasnt sure if this was related to a server not appearing in a master server list problem which we sometimes get, when it is really.<br><br> </div>
