    Can we please have the connections stabilised??

    Or something. Please. For sanity's sake.

    I'm fed up with this slidheshow/stop-motion/name-it-whatever-you-want thing that I have to experience every damn day. The thing when in one frame I see everyone beside me, then in the next frame, which is about 2-5s later, I see that only I am standing there still, everyone else is out of the picture.

    I'm fed up with seeing "Shuu DC" in the chat window before the screen actually goes black and the 9000x error message is displayed... And when I try to log back in, I either get the 3102, telling me I'm still logged in - or the 2002, and am thrown back to the desktop. Then when it's finally neither - I'm informed that the world is full.

    I'm fed up with seeing status effect timers just ticking, counting down, never resetting no matter what.

    I'm fed up with seeing the little network icon going from "Sending: 78 Receiving 547" to "Sending: 54 Receiving 0" to "Sending: 0 Receiving 9140" to "Sending: 0 Receiving: 0" within a single minute... And then either getting disconnected or not. In latter case, cue the slideshow effect for a short while, and then the disconnection. (* numbers not fully exact/accurate, but yes, that is the rough process)

    I'm fed up with seeing seven party messages in the chat one minute after I'm already out of the dungeon which was a solo-sign-up roulette.

    I'm fed up with this being the case after every maintenance now, and even later on, especially with the frequency of maintenances lately.

    I'm fed up with not being able to progress with dungeons for days because of this issue, and having to watch friends just getting ahead with everything in the meantime, that much harder because I can't help them.

    I'm fed up with going to the kitchen to make a tea, which takes me maybe about two minutes, and get back and find myself disconnected from the game, when at the same time I often see people in a fake crafting pose, rooted to the same spot in the evening that they occupied early in the morning when I first logged in.

    Stop trying to make me believe this is on my end, because this is not. I know my connection gets wonky at times, but when that happens, all my devices on the network and all the data transfers suffer from it, in a clearly noticeable and visible way. In pretty much all the cases I described above, no other part of my network is having any sort of issues, the inernet connection itself as well as the wifi, is completely stable. When I lose the connection to the one server I'm playing on, but am able to click on Start and get to my character immediately afterwards, I think it's pretty clear that it's not my part. No game, no streaming, no any other downloading or uploading ever behaves this way, and definitely not this consistently.

    Stop trying to make me believe this is on my end, when I keep hearing these same complaints, from quite a lot of people, in different timezones, playing on different servers.

    Routing? Yeah, that may be an issue - but even if that's what it is, it's in the higher levels which we, single individual customers, have no way to affect. And if it's not; if it is something in SE's own network... Yeah, it really should be looked into much more closely.
