Is it just me, or has lag increased very much the last days? :banghead: I died twice today just because I couldn't move :palm: Never had it before, now it's already 2 days in a row that sometimes I just can't do anything ... is it my computer, or SRO?

Your computer cannot lag. Your internet connection or the server which in this case is silkroad can lag.

So, it's not because the server of SRO is lagging, but my internet connection?

i also dont use any firewall or antivirus, the only formats i make is when i buy new pc......

dont buy into all that anti virus crap, just download from safe sites / torrents.

btw, some ppl experience lag in servers, it may be on serverside, its just random AFAIk.

Never used an antivirus or firewall on any of my computers. Don't go anywhere nor download anything i shouldn't. Only stupid people use them when they go places they shouldn't.

As for the lag, yes i have noticed the 4-5 second lag spike more often then usual.

If you live on the State it could have been everyone flooding your isp by doing their taxes, at least thats what happened where I live. But my isp sucks and goes down a lot.

Same for me, I use to have Anti-Virus but I realized lately I haven't downloaded anything or gone to a site thats not safe, so there's really no need.

You don't need an anti-virus if your not stupid. A number of things could be making you lag. The packets from your client are sent through wires to many servers, then through more wires + more server etc etc until they reach their destination, the Silkroad Game Servers. A slight problem with a server hop to another could cause packets to be dropped making you lag, or that server just has a poor connection/overloaded. All depends on your ISP and if they work to optimize their network by working with others

about the packets, i know my isp awhile back would route my packets from the east coast to the west coast, down to texas and back to the city 20km away from me.. causing mad lag on some games.

Yeah because torrents are always safe! *input sarcasm*

Ontopic: I've been having a lot of lag as well lately. I think it's Joymax because I usually have no lag at all.
