Game Hosting [SOLVED]

[Purelukk]

I have read through the wiki on Game Hosting http://wiki.faforever.com/index.php?tit ... join_games but it stops just short of the confusing part of hosting a game.

When I double click "FAF" a new window pops up that doesn't completely make sense to me.

This new window is titled: "Hosting Game: FAF"

Can the wiki be extended to include an explanation of this window, its options and how to properly use them?

For example:
Why are the little buttons for "friends" and "hidden" greyed out?
Why does the Lobby Preview subwindow show a picture of a padlock?
- this leads me to believe that the game I am hosting will be locked to others. ie - if i wanted to solo play against the AI or something
- can i change this? I dont seem to be able to interact with it. If I want to host a game for me and a friend will he be able to see it/join if it is locked?

Thanks to all for the great info, keep it coming!

New and newbie players that's completely different case... Since its the biggest part of FAF, actually most of the FAF, there is also much higher chance that you'll find jerks there... But as you getting better the people around are also nicer. One thing we cant do is to patch people's behaviour.
