However, i have a problem with logging into the lobby it keeps blocking me. Ive checked my firewall and made sure that im not the one blocking it. Am i missing a step or what? /glare.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":glare:" border="0" alt="glare.gif" />

There are several problems that you could try to correct -- depends on what is ailing your comp, modem, or firewall. If you are operting behind a network with a router connecting to your DSL modem, you may wanna check out the port forwarding.

Look at the help section -- most connectivity problems can be sovled with a bit of reading. If not, or if you don't understand what is there, post on the helpline. As you will read, giving specifics as to your set up is usually very helpful.

Try HERE first, though:

Good Luck -- and saw you signed up for cadet -- good move.

Now make Deng a sammich. /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

Extremely addictive. I know ppl (you know who you are /ninja.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":ninja:" border="0" alt="ninja.gif" />) who are married to the game and will steal, cheat, and lie to anyone and everyone to play "just one more game." Sad, but true. Those are the tell-tale signs! Be sure to join AA (Alleg Anon) right away.

Seriously though, depends whether you want/have a real life and real life relationships. I actually limit the amount of playing time to specific days/hours so I don't get totally sucked into this black hole. /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />

p.s. Be sure to download the MFO (mis-spelling filter overlay). Over time Alleg short-circuits your other brain functions and typing ability. /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

Yes well i usually manage well between keeping a life and gaming. All good things are only good in moderation. Sure i have my obsesive streaks but those are very rare /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" /> . Now i must go play wack-a-mole for 17 hours dont expect to see me /cool.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="
