woah...this is really disturbing

i went on to ign.ie 2 last night (speak this morning 2am) cause i was bored and there was only one other person on it. a newbie from the US. His pings were equal to mine. a couple minutes later another fellow arrives with pings of 350 ...he was connecting from the states with a 33.6 modem. i think the choice of us kicking ppl with pings higher than 500 may stop the high ping connects from the us, but honestly, there could be some us guys amongst us that look like ...well..irish connects and better....they are everywhere...we just cant be certain anymore...bummer that there isnt a way to see where they are connecting from =(
