Can''t play multiplayer..

Whenever I try to connect to a server it just tells me "Hold on, taking longer than expected.." then "Your account name and password didn't fit the server" or something like that. I've tried many servers, but its all the same. Am I missing something, do I need an acocunt name/password? I don't see any button to make one..

You possibly not using a legal copy of FL. That's why you're having problems. The software was loaded on another machine and now the unique ID generated is not synching up...that would be my guess.

I had this problem once, it happened when the Global Server listing wasn't working properly, or when a single server is really laggy. But i never experinced all the servers saying this. Are you sure all the servers do this? or only the one you are trying to connect to? try finding a server with a low ping and see what happens.
