Just gave up about 20 minutes ago myself on Carby in Abyssea-Altepa. The last straw was when I recovered from the R0 state and had 5 tigers and that NM on me....managed to take one down with the fast-forward mass hysteria swinging while the client caught up with what was queued from the server before I died. Home Pointed to Port jueno and it was still R0'ing, so bounced to Bastok, and it was again doing it in my mog house in Bastok Mines. So it doesn't seem to be isolated to one specific zone.

Been poking around on the web testing different sites, and it doesn't seem to be lagging out anywhere but these forums a little (I've had to refresh pages a few times as they stall out on load).

It may be an issue getting to the Japan area or something...who knows. Pushing 1AM here anyway, so probly just call it a night soon....hopefully things clear up by the time I get back on tomorrow afternoon.
