Devs - Whats with the terrible lag on LS?

Always run a trace route if you're experiencing lag to make sure it's not your connection, but the server itself. Generally one of the biggest clues as to server vs connection lag is if you stop moving and everything else does NOT (i.e. if you're in melee combat and the combat continues and "catches up" after you freeze for a few seconds), then that's all connection. Server lag would have EVERYTHING slow down or stop.

Its not a connection issue.... its the server! Its like running through quicksand!
50ms hop is max to the server.
