Schnitzelnagler	What exactly are you doing to 'host a session'?

If you're playing on someone elses server and you click the host button, this message will display because you're already in a remote world and as such, can't host it.

If you have the actual .DMB and .RSC, I'm not sure what would cause that error.

Tiberath	People get confused I've noticed. With things like Battle.NET, you're essentially hosting a game on another computer and whatnot, it's understandable that people might think pressing the Host button would launch another copy of the game they're playing.
