I'm just curious to know? a couple of times I've heard someone accusing others of being a bad host, and I can't figure out how they know? not that having a go at someone is going to do any good

Maybe this is it Matt


DEFINITION - The term "host" is used in several contexts, in each of which it has a slightly different meaning:

1) In Internet protocol specifications, the term "host" means any computer that has full two-way access to other computers on the Internet. A host has a specific "local or host number" that, together with the network number, forms its unique IP address. If you use Point-to-Point Protocol to get access to your access provider, you have a unique IP address for the duration of any connection you make to the Internet and your computer is a host for that period. In this context, a "host" is a node in a network.

2) For companies or individuals with a Web site, a host is a computer with a Web server that serves the pages for one or more Web sites. A host can also be the company that provides that service, which is known as hosting.

3) In IBM and perhaps other mainframe computer environments, a host is a mainframe computer (which is now usually referred to as a "large server"). In this context, the mainframe has intelligent or "dumb" workstations attached to it that use it as a host provider of services. (This does not mean that the host only has "servers" and the workstations only have "clients." The server/client relationship is a programming model independent of this contextual usage of "host.")

4) In other contexts, the term generally means a device or program that provides services to some smaller or less capable device or program.

you need to amend your cfg file:

seta cg_ScoresPing_MaxBars "10"

located somwhere like this: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\call of duty modern warfare 2\players\

That will give you 10 ping bars instead of 4 so you get some idea but it's still not always possible to know.

Thanks Rich! Lol Dirk you nutter

seta cg_ScoresPing_interva from 100 to 25

This gives you a good see over how good your ping is.
This is sort off how you can tell when you altered the above
10 = 0 - 25
9 = 25 - 50
8 = 50 - 75
7 = 75 - 100
6 = 100 - 125
5 = 125 - 150
4 = 150 - 175
3 = 175 - 200
2 = 200 - 225
1 = 225 +


seta cg_ScoresPing_MaxBars from 4 to 10

10 bars instead of 4 gives you a good view of who the host is.
