Now that I've caught your attention, I'll be a little more polite. A rude title is a popular one.
Anyway, I've noticed that many people complain about lag, telling R2 to stop installing patches and stuff and to fix their lag instead, etc. etc.
I'm pretty sure (obviously not absolutely positive since I don't play on all servers) that the lag is your PC's fault, not R2's.
I have come to that conclusion because I have personally experienced that lag, but only when I used my sister's old junk PC after my laptop's harddrive turned to mush. The lag was terrible. I couldn't do my MP runs because everybody had to wait for me, when the MP run was over I would want to say "thank you" and then I realized everybody was already gone, I hit half of what I normally would in world boss, and so on, so forth.
Then I finally got a new laptop, intel core i7 with 8 gb ram and all that good stuff. Now I never ever EVER (ever) lag. Well, the occasional little bump here and there that is expected, but it doesn't last longer than 5 seconds usually. Happens mostly in cross-server things, so I think the lag is mostly servers calibrating their times or something like that.
So please stop complaining about lag. If it really is a server problem, those of you with crappy computers that complain of lag are making it seem like those who really have bad servers have bad PCs too, which may not be the case. There may actually be bad servers, but it's difficult to pinpoint those servers when those with old/crappy PCs are blaming it on the server and not on their PC.
Make sense? (this is not a snobby question, I know that I sometimes am confusing/can't word things properly :P )
Also, I'm not trying to kiss R2's *** because I know that they're not the best and there are other games that may have better service. But that's not the point here. I just really get irritated sometimes with those illiterate "hurr durr r2 stahp wit dem patchs and fix my lag omgz u sux so much im gunna quit dis game its gon 2 hell like srsly u guys lag sooo much u shud fix it first but u just want mony Y NOT FIX MY LAG FIRST OMGZ"
Be civil. Do research. Locate the true root of the problem. Act accordingly.
