Unacceptable Lag / ISP Throttle (Petition)

[Kraggy]

While ISP Throttle has been the blame game, there is some evidence of a bit of throttle, yet just about every ISP has been listed.

A thread was created by myself on the Verizon FiOS forums and has been updated as we progress to open communication to the ISP. Verizon has not yet commented on this said issue. Meaning, it cannot be confirmed it is centralized with certain ISPs.

So Verizon's refusal to admit it IS them doing it means it MUST BE SE I take it.

I am with BT in the UK, I had this problem. BT researched it and accepted it was down to them, they changed their "media-stealers-throttle" to recognise FFXIV as a GAME and I've not had ONE DC in the last two+ weeks. I have NO noticeable lag on either Phoenix or Hyperion in any location at all.

THE GAME IS PLAYING JUST FINE.

So clearly, my experience is that IT'S NOT SE'S FAULT and SE are powerless to fix it in the face on intransigent ISPs like Verizon seem to be.

I realise that it's frustrating to suffer AT YOUR ISP's HANDS, I did for the best part of two week, but this tirade against SE is asinine as well as totally futile, because it's clear SE really, REALLY wants to screw-over its paying customers.
