Many people wanna give "Peer" a good kick in the ass. "Peer" is just the server you are connected to. The server will ping you every once in a while to make sure you're still there. Imagine this as the guy in the sad-ass Verizon commercial. Server: Can you hear me now? Client: Yes! Server: Good!
But when there is no reply, the server disconnects you. Or, in this case, the Verizon punk would hang up. Server: Can you hear me now? Server: Hello? Can you hear me? Server: Is anyone there? [[Server hangs up]]
