Never checked my ping though either, cos I didn't need to :)

Sorry to hear guys. Maybe they are doing work when you experience the problems or there are actually an international problem...??

I find IS and SAIX generally very good for GW. I only really notice anyting when there are work happening or an internaitonal problem.

Get a Webafrica Saix pre-paid. IS is for local and news servers, u should know better. International bandwidth only from saix for games unless u get IS over fibre....

Yea man, but dont have a choice right now. Unless I go and buy an account...

That cybersmart deal for 125/3gig is looking very attractice, but my only gripe is that it only has one concurrent connection.

But see my post here, maybe someone here has the answer ?

:eek:

Getting gangbanged by 6 mesner creeps in a 6man group in the Villainy quest (almost finished it too), and being the only one left alive, I try run away. I lagged out and next scene I see myself continually running repeatedly into a tree aftwerwhich I die from being mauled by about 3 Nightmare wolves o_O

How can I accept that? lol

:D

Move on, get back to it when you are stronger / better. :)
That is a mean quest even when you are level 20. When I went and did it with my lvl20 Factions ranger, it was not easy. I started form Temple of Ages with henchies, iow party of 8.
IMO they appear to have changed the quest since I was last there with my Prophecies warrior and necro, 6 months ago or so.
