Sorry to be completely off-topic here, and of no help.. But..

How much do you know about the people who play Nightmist, JLH? You obviously know their IP's and ISP's.. But what other information can you gather, just from then playing your game?

All staff can see your ip and work out what Jurian said if they know how but we don't find out anything else about you so your secrets are safe ;)

since you formatted your pc trying to fix the issue, and it didn't fix it, your isp could be blocking the ports nightmist use, there is no fault with the server as server faults usually effect everyone, i assume the tracert works from the site on the help menu?

you are having a connection problem to nightmist or experiencing lag, a traceroute will identify where the delay is caused (assuming the lag is due to the internet). The system has detected what your internet IP is and has placed it in the box below, if this is not correct, or you wish to traceroute somewhere else, enter a new IP/domain and click on go.</p><hr>Enter IP address or the full domain name to traceroute

thats what it said.
