(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So despite the many threads on this question, no one has ever really had a definitive answer to how to lock a lobby on CoD 5. I posted this in an older thread already, but i think that some people who could have used the information perhaps over looked it because of how far it was buried. Anyway, here is a list of the possible ways to lock a lobby on cod 5:

1. Upload a video to youtube or any other filesharing website: Not very effective as it must be cancelled before the game starts and you are therefore completely helpless if someone times out or something. However, it works great as far as getting the necessary people into the game lobby before the game actually starts, but you must fill the lobby if you dont want random people joining.
2. Lag switch method: If you go into a game with 6 people and back three out while lag switching with the correct timing, the game will sometimes lock up, and only people you invite can join.
3. Forward all the ports on your router to a non-existent ip address: This is my personal method, but it has its drawbacks. First, Once you enable the port forwarding rule, only the following can connect - people who are already in your party, other playstations that are on YOUR internet connection, and other playstations sharing the same internet connection as the friends in your party. In order to be used effectively therefore, it must be combined with a youtube upload to get the people into the game lobby, then enabled right before the game starts. If done right, it works like a charm. By the way i use a lynksis router for this because unlike many routers, it doesnt require you to reboot when enabling a port forwarding rule, which would sign you out.

Here is a screenshot of my router page to try to help you guys out with any confusion:

4. Just plain luck: This is the way most of the top boosters lock rooms - they just happen to have an isp that ends up spontaneously giving them locked lobbies. It sometimes happens after a certain sequence of people leaving the game, or even just as soon as they enter the game with a party, but whatever causes it, it works the best because no random people join, but everyone who is invited can.

BE SURE TO HIT THE THANK BUTTON IF THIS HELPED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...but the owner of the account is the one that does winstreaks. And also I know that loarte ended his winstreak but before when he was still on it he was too paranoid to play a game when he wasn't even host, so I highly doubt that he would have ever let someone else play on it. I can guarantee you it is his isp...
