Can you guys at SE please actually look into this problem? Why is there a thread from 2013 about 90002 still getting posts? Why hasn't this been fixed?
Charter Internet
Georgia, USA.
Fix the lag and the disconnections, It's becoming extremely hard to play this game when I can't even log in. Why would I pay a subscription for a game I can't even play?
Because the bulk of the problems have been tied to things your ISP and their peering partners need to address, not something SE can fix.
It is basically what has been at the heart of things like the Net Neutrality and Open Internet debates that have been going on for the last 5-10 years.
To gain a better grasp of the situation, go through the blog series from Level3 about the Open Internet. They started in March of 2014 with the "Chicken" post here:
http://blog.level3.com/category/open-internet/page/2/
They continue in chronological order up that page, and then you go back to the first page for the Verizon "Mea Culpa" post in July of 2014 here:

And again they flow in chronological order up through May of 2015 as you go up the page.
There is a lot more info out there (including technical white papers and formal documents filed with the FCC and such over the last decade), but for the most part these articles are fairly short and get right to the point, sometimes providing simple, clear examples for people to follow and get a better grasp of the situation. Our infrastructure in general is a mess... and the ISP's need to clean it up.
This is super informative, I appreciate the effort you put into this. I'll definitely read through it, might make me a little less angry to understand whats going on.
