Does that mean the servers are perfect? No. There are issues, the .3 second positional updates work, but could easily be better. HOWEVER. That doesn't mean people's connections aren't at issue either, or their ISP, or the route to the servers which SE has no control over, or many other things that could be an issue but will get brushed aside as being SE's problem to deal with.
    No three groups is fine, you fit into group C. Like has been said over and over and over no one is denying that for some it can be "net" lag problems.

    The big three are net lag, pc lag and the 300ms forced on us. This has been talked about often and is nothing new to most of us. All of us are used to the first 2 which we can deal with using various methods. The problem is when people suffering from the first 2 have to also deal with the 3rd issue, especially since if people are honest about it they will admit even with a 31ms avg ping the 3rd issue can sometimes buck up and throw you.

    SE cannot fix the first 2 issues but it can damn well fix the third. MMo are nothing new nowadays and we all have learned to deal with net lag and pc lag. Forcing a 300ms position check delay was asinine to start with, it doesn't matter if there are ways to "get around" the issues like doing the achy breaky dance before attacks come up.

    It is not rocket science.
