People don't seem to be able to join my servers and I want to know how can I make it so people can join? My connection is well I'd say average speed cable so i don't see what the problem is. Help please.

Um, do you have a router? If you do, make sure your DMZ is enabled.

Is it that people can't join at all, or that they all get bumped while playing?

Either way, it really doesn't matter because even if you were able to get them to connect, they would eventually get bumped because of the routers on you internet providers end.

It's easy to find the bad router by doing a traceroute either between your computer and gamespy, or your computer and your friends, the problem is getting your cable internet provider to do anything about it...GOOD LUCK!

Also what is your ping, and what do you name your games?
If they have high pings, I don't join, if they have a newbie lookinlike type name I usually don't join.
