Ignore "Forever_Alone".
You cannot enter your own server (if the server is running in the same network as you) with your public IP, only others can. You have to connect with 127.0.0.1.
So, YOU connect with 127.0.0.1:PORT and OTHERS connect with PUBLICIP:PORT
You can SEE the server online on the public IP if you port forwarded correctly, but you can't connect to it.
