I know this might sound stupid, but what does the ping stand for when im choosing a server? Is it better with more or less?

Ping is how long it takes for a small piece of data to go to a server and come back again (also known as the "round trip time". Kinda like the sonar "ping" you get on submarines. Measured in milliseconds, you want it small so that the game runs smoothly.
