questions answred, thanks for answering

I believe ping means internet connection is lost.

No response means tb has crashed.

both can be used for force ping, by disconnecting internet or setting graphics extremely high

Correct me if I'm wrong

Does that mean ping and no response could make people think that you force pinged?

Kars, when an opponent is going to ping. You can tell by either lag spiked causing chat to lag

or freezing. Both can see it because the game we are both playing so we are connected.

So if you lag, I lag.

You can usually tell if it is a force ping because it usually happens while the last frame of someone losing is about to happen.
