Massive Mass Pingout

Post by csm »

I'm getting like 20-30+ out of 120 or so users pinging out at once, this is extremly annoying. Before you tell me to change the pingfreq its already at 600...

Anyhelp is appreciated.

Or ideas on how to stop it, thanks,

It's because 600 is way too high... With one ping every 10 minutes, each user that has lost their connection won't be disconnected until they miss that 10 minute ping... which means there's up to 20 minutes of ping timeouts happening all at once!

A proper value for the pingfreq is 90 or 120

If you've got large numbers of users pinging out you can usually safely say its an issue with your connection to the internet.
