user name already online?
Errm..

Why did i just get kicked from the server and then when i went to rejoin it says "user name already online" ?

It does it for all the servers i try and join......
That means, you are stuck on a server.

Send an e-mail to the devs via www.liveforspeed.net explaining your problem and they will help you.
Usually if you wait a few minutes, it should fix itself.
Yeah it fixed itself

Does it happen often?
I don't think so, never happend to me before.
If you disconnect from a server and try to rejoin it again, LFS did not receive the info that you had disconnected and it thinks you are trying to go on the same username twice (racing with two computers using the same username). It should fix itself in less than a minute, I would NOT report this to the dev's unless it lasts for a long time (more than an hour).
I didn't manually disconnect from the server. I just got booted (dunno if i was kicked, or just connection dropped) but i've got a good ADSL connection and i wasn't ramming anyone so i don't know why it did either.

Ahh well, it hasn't happened since. If it does i'll seek some help

Thanks!
It happens sometimes when a player or the server lags really badly and disconencts a whole lot of people at once (read: OOS). Not very frequent but not unheard either, just wait a couple of minutes and you're off again.
I got that problem too, when i got dc i couldnt join again, i got that what shiganigans says: user name already online.
But after restart of LFS i could join again without problems.
Happened to me once too after being ungraciously disconnected. Fixed itself a couple of mins later. Reckon there's a timeout that kicks in.
Well tackled bug via the Dev's. Well done Devs
