A couple of days ago, when I was looking to join a game, I'd get a list of around 500 servers, thats dropped down to about 50 now.
Ive also noticed that the choice of servers with people connected to them is really slim. Infact the only 2 servers I can join are cone dodgers and carribean cruise. Theyre the only 2 servers I can see with people racing! Im enjoying the conedodgers server, but is this normal? I only downloaded and bought my s2 license last week, would have thought there were loads of people online.

Have you turned any filters on by accident in the Server list?

No I havent, but now I know what the filters are for! Could I be running a different version to other people?

That depends, what version are you running?
If you start LFS you will see the version number down the bottom in the credits.

LFS s2 0.5w I'm actually picking up 246 servers now, strange!

See... i fixed it! lol!!

yes you're an absolute star lol
