Package: bzflag
Version: 2.0.0.20050118
Severity: normal

During the game startup it tries to connect to vhost.sourceforge.net and
to bzflag.org in order to get MOTD announcement.

Of cause, behind a proxy this leads to a long game block during
startup (until TCP timeout expires).

For unexperienced user this behaviour looks like bzflag hangs on
startup. So it would be nice to switch off this option by default.


Thanks.
