Unfortunately for me the last few weeks I have had more time to play than anytime in the last year. I try to get on when the player count is low but even that doesn't really help anymore. I was doing some long hauls last night and I found having Instas didn't help a bit because each gate jump lag 20sec. I was better off setting autopilot and walking away for 30 minutes. I lost a Raven a few nights ago for the same reason. Came through a gate that was camped, but because of the long pause I was jammed and scrammed before I ever knew any ships were there. Just had to set and watch it blow. Opened a petition so hopefully I will have reimbursement in the next three months or so, lol. Very promising to see hotfixes rolled out at downtime and then see a server reboot hours later to rollback the hotfix.

I love the "fanboy" post especially from 3 weeks old players, lol. This one is my favorite, "CCP has also made every effort to explain to you what is happening, and to tell you what is coming (ie DEV BLOGS)". How exactly did you determine this in the few weeks you have been playing. This problem has been around long before you came to the game. The lag problem got really bad with Dragon but it was weeks before the Dev Blog mentioned anything about it. How about you go to the top of this forum and look at the sticky for "Known Issues" last updated in June. Not a single reply since then on the known issues or resolutions. How about you look at the petitions from thousands of players that go unanswered for weeks if not months. I have one from June still pending, not one reply yet.
Next time your cable TV, cell phone, or internet goes out don't call the provider and complain because they are doing everything they can to restore the service. And if you happen to have problems over weeks or years it's the same story, it's not their fault they are trying really hard. Lol, must be hard for fanboys to be such quiet, good little customers who never complain about anything.

You know it is bad when they can't even get the web page right. Anyone else notice it takes 1-2 minutes for the Eve home page to load up and this is after seeing web page maintenance alerts the last few weeks.

Well, since last Tuesday's patch my gameplay has improved dramatically. The lag is minor and very playable as it was a few months back. I haven't changed anything, I am running two highend PC's, one account on each, on a 10mb/1mb connection. I will be ecstatic if it improves from here or happy if it just doesn't go back to the way it was the last several weeks. Cautiously optimistic for now!

Well, I have lost many an item due to the lag and never bothered to petition because I couldn't handle being called a liar on top of the loss. Tonight I received a quality industrial character added to my account that I purchased from a friend. Only an hour into moving his assets to one location I get podded in a .4 system because I can't get the gate to activate while the screen stutters mercilessly. I was there picking up four very important BPO's fresh out of research to ME125. I was aware of the risk but once within 2500m of the gate I should be home free. This one will be petitioned because I just can't replace these items with more ISK. This all taking place in a system with a whopping total of 3 people in local.
