'No!' says the man in the Vatican, 'It belongs to God.' 'No!' says the man in Moscow, 'It belongs to everyone.' I rejected those answers; instead, I chose something different. I chose the impossible. I chose... Rapture!

Re: LAAAAAAAAG!!!!!

np glad I could help :smileyhappy:

EDIT

Do this for all new games mate, or if you really understand you could just use DMZ then all ports will be open no matter the game.
