MilliondollarExileadmin question right there! Why do players fail to connect to xyz server when trying to join?

Mods, error divide by zero crash, memory crash/error.... million & one reasons my friend

Ok so I have been playing around with my config files -
Following changes where made :

• Removed  -enableHT -malloc=system from my parameters
• Changed my verifySignatures     = 0;            // Changed from 1 to 0

Those are the only 2 changes I have made and NO connections issues so far!

Still no connection problems after my change

That's because you are no longer verifying players files:  verifySignatures     = 0; 
You don't check you don't get any kicks naturally.

This setting should be:  verifySignatures   = 2; So that that players gamefiles are verified against the server.
Atm this seems to kick a lot of people who (may) have currupted/hacked files on their drives. Just search for "signature" here at exilemod.

What you are doing with  "verifySignatures  = 0 " is remove checks that players have the same PBO's as the server.
That means hello hackers with menu injectors and players with wrong version mods, which is a whole new set of problems. Pick your poison :-)
