Well, servers do handle spikes extremely poorly. If you have any fluctuation in your internet, you either get kicked out or everything freezes. I experienced this today while I crafted the black willow cane. A small lag made the entire game freeze. As a result, my macro jumped a step and it continued without using Byregot's blessing, NQ'ing the cane at 11%. Granted, it's still better than being kicked out and loosing the mats, but still, the servers do this so often, it would be nice to either have them improved or at least have some safety measures for when it kicks you out, which happens a lot.

This is why you should always have a '/cancelmacro' macro on your hotbars, when regularly crafting with macros. It allows you to cancel the current macro if you notice a lag spike, so you can finish the craft normally.

That said, I'm also curious how the OP managed to finish a craft while being kicked off the server, presumably without warning.

Well, that's not what OP was saying. She said she got kicked out of the server while crafting. I have experienced what you're talking about though. You can do the stop macro or I've found that crafting inside your house or apartment greatly reduces the chances of that happening. I think it's because it's in its own instance.
