You may well have been caught in a range ban. Contact I_Died_Once or Optic Delusion, they can probably sort things out for you.

You could try joining the ##planetmofo IRC channel on irc.freenode.net

I'm having the same problem, I'm getting the message "Error connecting to server" on "Planet MoFo" and "Fox Burrow" servers.

Anyone know the reason?

Thanks in advance.

More details:

This happen on all "bzflag.planet-mofo.com" and "bzflag2.norang.ca" servers/maps (not on bzflag3.norang.ca).

I can't to access to www.planet-mofo.com in my web browser, I get the message "This page cannot be displayed".
I have two computers sharing internet access (ADSL 4Mb/512Kb) and same problem on both.

There is another thread about this problem: http://my.bzflag.org/bb/viewtopic.php?t=13253

Thanks.

Like I said: you may have been caught in a range ban, which is spread across both of those server groups. Contact I_Died_Once or Optic Delusion, or join ##planetmofo and they can whitelist you you.

You were probably caught by a firewall block rule. Does it work better now?
