You need to delete the "Server status" page on your web site, as it just makes you look foolish having a static page blatantly lying about the status of your servers.
Or here's a novel thought: how about conjuring up a little script monitoring the actual, honest to God server status? You know, have the page state that a server is *gasp* down when it is?
Have a go at the server selection screen too, it *really* makes you look daft having your own software listing this one server in my list as "online" - until I've not only clicked on it, but waited a little bit longer to accept your EULA. Only *then* does your poor numbskull software realize that, oops, the server's not available!
Sheesh, you're a like a three year old desperately going "It wasn't me!" from *inside* the empty cookie jar.
Bah.
(edit to add that the software itself is lying about server software, halfway through the log in procedure)
