[quoteost_uid0="DA_VIPA"]ive never really noticed but what importance has the port number got to do with gameplay or anyting else.everyone normaly on 1626 or something but then i see certain individuals who are on port 80 and 31021? plz some explain.[/quote]
a port is a place on a circuit that is the point of interface. Its how information is passed from one circuit to another.

You can think of them as tiny switches. If port 80 is closed or being used by something else information can't go into that circuit via that route. So another route is needed
