It really irk's me when I see post like this the topic is LAG LAG LAG not I am not having a problem with LAG who cares about you.
THERE IS A BIG LAG PROBLEM PERIOD. I have not been around one person who says the Lag isn't effecting me.
Then people say oh maybe you have a Virus. OMG are you kidding me.
Even EA said "We are shutting down to fix the LAG issue once and for all" So dont say you dont have lag when EA says there is LAG.

I do not have lag!!!! Get it through your head once and for all I do not have lag. It really pisses me off when I and others who do not have a problem with lag are attacked because we do not have the problem....rofl.
YOU have a big lag problem I do not. We are trying to help you find out if maybe just maybe there might be another issue going on that is causing your lag.
EA is trying to work it out on their end maybe some of us can work it out on our end, not all lag is EA's fault. I have been on and every house I visit there are people with and with out lag. I hear them say "I don't have lag here" all the time. I don't like being called a liar just because you have a problem and can't deal with it.

He has a valid point. Many people have the 'if it doesn't affect me then it's not a problem' attitude, and it *does* get bothersome if you do post a problem and 15 people say 'no problem here, must be you' also. That's not to say everybody who isn't affected by the lag has the aforementioned attitude, but many do. I've dealt with the lag myself by just making TC3 my *home* pretty much so it doesn't really affect me alot, but I sympathize with those who are hard hit by it because I was hit when I was there.....just today in fact when trying to trade the last of my lava cards. My advice has always been to the people who are having the crippling lag in EAL to play in TC3 for a few hours to clear your head of it and not let it get you totally freaked out, BUT it does suck when you can't play in the city you really want to, and instead have to play in an alternate city. That much is true.
The bottom line though is that this is beta, and the cities are still merging so a bit of extra lag is to be expected.....I dont' think they (EA) or us can make a true determination on whether or not the servers are up to snuff until the merges in teh background are completed and ONLY the running of the game is going on. IF we still have crippling lag at that point, I am certain they will do anything and everything within their power to deal with it.
That's my thoughts from my non-geek yet non-techie-illiterate point of view.
