Bad Lag the Past Few Days

[Vespar]

Considering December and January are the months that most folks take holidays, I am not surprised. The servers could just be weighed down with the extra traffic of folks who are on holiday wanting to play. I have been getting bad lag (even with my VPN on) mostly during peak hours NA time. That usually doesnt happen to me unless it's patch week or free login week.

I'm hoping the lag is going to die down soon with people coming back to work from holidays. I've also been experiencing bad lag during NA peak times since around the holidays, and before then during the major Level 3 issues.

With 2.5,2.51 and 2.5 part 2 (nicknamed 2.55 by players but I don't think it's actually been called that yet) just around the corner, I fear my hopes may be in vain. If it's the way it is now, I can play through it but if it gets worse, well...here's hoping it doesn't.

Wish SE had more servers at different locations so that I could pick/transfer to a server that has the best route for my location (like wow has a bunch of server locations, so a player can ping them all to find out which is best for them if they wanted to).
