As it's a game that runs on dedicated servers we can't block other players from joining the server like a P2P game. We can only ensure that you get the closest server possible and thereby giving you a low ping which means you have an advantage over them with your connection to the server.

Sorry dear Fraser,
i assume that you think that everyone here is an idiot.
A CSGO match needs 10 Players, so 8 Russians join a EU Server that is 800km away from Russia?
What makes more sense?
2 players joining a Russian server to fill a queue or 8 Russians joining a EU server?
I have a VDSL, speedtest, 5ping. In games where there are no russians i have 11-15ping. Now looking at the fact that i had a ping of 70-95, i joined a server near me?
I will tell you how companies go broke, when they advertise things that don't work. You can save yourself all this talking and start fixing this router. You don't want to see my review. About reviews, i remembered that i need one for Sonarworks. Almost forgot it.
