Something smells fishy...

There is this server on Halo Combat Evolved PC that I enjoy playing on. But recently after a like 15 minutes of playing time it says: "Game has closed down."

It seems to be only happening to me because when I go immediately back to the server lobby all the same players are still on the server.

I just think it's strange....First on the bottom right hand corner there is the symbol for when your connection is about to disconnect.
But I have a really fast connection and DSL wireless....the modem is in my house.

I don't beleive its my installation. I tried changing my name and the same thing happened. I've been on other servers and it's not a problem.

Honestly it could be the server admin. kicking me off. Not like I did anything.
it's too bad Halo PC internet multiplayer is so susceptible to people with ill intent.

When you get kicked by an admin is says you were kicked. The "Game closed down" message comes when you can no longer reach the server it assumes the game or server was turned off. You can get that message with bad lag and its usually on the servers side. everyone else in that server probaly got that message too. I think that when the GameSpy server can't contact a server it leaves the last info it had on it up until a certain time passes.

that makes a lot of sense. You're probably right.

There were a few players with severe lag both those games. I could tell bcause you couldn't hit them with the pistol especially when they were in a warthog. The warthog would go strait then dissapear and end up somewhere else on the map because the person had turned while in a more detailed area of the map.

I've used haloded many times and the only time I've seen "game has closed down" was when I entered sv_end_game and the game ended with that message.

I'm not sure whether or not the server that I was playing on uses haloded.

The whole point was that I was worried that the server admin was kicking me off the server for no reason.

Probably the admin will fix it. Hopefully :)
