Weird joining issue when creating servers from New Zealand

[jandel]

So this is an extremely strange bug, that I have been noticing for the last couple weeks - and others from my region have so as well.

I am from Wellington, New Zealand. When I am the first to join a game place/or open up a Team Create server, people outside of my region are unable to join my game/open the TC place.

The bug seems to happen when:

• I am the first to join the server (Eg I am the creating the server).
• I am the first to join the TC

Some users are able to join my game/server, whereas others (not sure if it’s region related) are not able to join me.

It started happening about a week ago.

Required Information

• Problems specific to a Place / User / Group / etc. - Try to isolate the issue to a repro. Otherwise, include direct links to the affected assets; engineers will not know what “my group” or “game-name” means.
• Crashes or Freezes or problems running Roblox / Studio - Include reliable reproduction steps. Otherwise, provide a program dump and log files.
• Performance Problems - Include a microprofiler dump, and your system information.
• Graphics Problems - Include your system information.
• Backend/server Problems (e.g. Team Create disconnects) - Provide information to help Roblox find the issue.

Just an update this bug is still occurring, and very present with multiple people from New Zealand.

It occurs across all games and places on ROBLOX, if I am the one who creates the server.
