The maker of a dedicated server can't join his own server

You shouldn't go around saying things you don't know. I play in my Dedi's all the time, it's quite possible.

1) Check that you're not runnign a LAN server by accident.
2) Make sure yor server list isn't filtered. I usually have it set so that it only shows serverswith one person in them, so I have trouble finding my own servers, too, until I realize this.
3) Try setting your online options to "Search all regions"

If that doesn't work, I dunno what will.
