Yeah that happens, you should host the script on one computer and play on another. Or try turning off programs you dont need running. Also make sure your Frame Limiter is On in your VC display options because when its Off VC will use alot of your computer.

Low ping is a good thing,  try closing Skype and any other programs that use your connection.

Yup thats ok, the client usually gives you a lower ping when your outgame so thats normal.

Did you close Skype to see if "!gotoloc" is responding faster?

yeah its responding faster, but not always :(
ive closed also msn and xfire,
could it be the script!

but you say a lower ping is better,
why do so many servers have a high ping?

What script are you using?

Your ping will be low in your own server because your hosting it, but it wont be so low in other servers naturally..

Check this to learn about ping, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ping (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ping)

You said you have modified the script... mIRC is not the best way to use scripts on servers (although its the only way currently in VC:MP). I have noticed that the script sometimes gets quite slow responding, if the size of the script gets big (>100kB) or theres lots of complex aliases the same command uses. Also on LW the echo is sometime slow, dunno whats the reason is there (perhaps same?). Skype and others doesnt affect much, unless you're hosting some conference call at the same time, but in stand by mode the traffic caused by skype is very slow.
