When refreshing Multiplayer list or it doesn't ping right or it pings very slow (some minutes to show motd and stuff)
First image is what I see for the first time, when I open the multiplayer for the first time.
Second is what I see when I press "Refresh", "F5" or go back and enter again in Multiplayer (this image still for a long time, pinging infinitely).
Last one is what is expected to see (2nd/3rd try waiting a lot)
In somewhere 1.7 they resolved this, but came back ~1.8+ and now it is super-slow to F5. It's faster to close the game and reopen...
Joining the server is also slow.
If it's due to pinging Mojang's eula dns, why don't you ping it 1 time and then check it for every server?
Would MC-125762 happen to describe your issue here? If not, please could you provide some screenshots and/or videos demonstrating this behavior while the F3 debug screen is enabled? This would assist in diagnosing the potential problem here. Thanks in advance!
