Something I noticed

The lag doesn't exactly start when the population is increasing or peaking, it starts at around 6 am server time. Even at 8k population, I had, and others, 3 second delay which almost felt worse than when it was 12k, and the view distance was at an atrocious 15 yards. 15 yards! I will again repeat that I checked if it was my connection and talked to guildies/general chat. So, this maybe is because bad connections and VPNs really do have an affect on the server? I would like to have discussion on the banning of VPNs and connections over 300ms (basically kicking someone out of the server if htey have a consistant ping of 300+ for 1 minute or more). It seems like the only viable and fair option at this point.

They know but they don't care atm. They're betting everything on this new cluster system in the works.
