Cant connect to main server

Whats wrong with my game? i cant connect to the main server (forgot its real name)

Ive a firewall but ive tried connecting with it on and off, both dont work.
I know someone else posted a thing like this b4but i dont know how to look for it.

Search Forums might help and u might want to look in the multiplayer or server forum as there are loads of topics on this!

It could be because the global server is down - it happens. Check the Server forum for some IP addresses, and then use the 'direct connect' or 'connect direct' tool made by Crabtree to help you connect directly to a server. If you go to the front page of the website - top right hand corner is a search button - type in 'connect direct' and see what comes up. try variations, or searching for just 'connect'. You may have to wade through some - but at least it will be there
