WHERE ARE ALL THE MONSTERS?! AHHH!

Server Lag?

Today, we all just experienced server lag. Global was full of idiots screaming, “IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD!” It isn’t the end of the Eo world. Something similar to d/cing while walking around Eo just occurred, that’s all. The server lags all the time, this time, it was just worse.

Possibilities:

- Due to the ill-managed server lag occurred. (best reason why)

- Admins are trying to add something to the server. (doubt)

- Day light savings?

- Hacked?

These are the only possibilities that have the slightest reason of being why. I’m leaning towards the ill-managed server reason.

Definitions:

Roll back: Similar to going back in time on a server, in attempts to “rolling-back” to a time where the server can actually be fixed.

Server Lag: Complication in the online server that we all play on. It’s designed to hold people and monsters, when lag happens you can experience delays.

In the end it all boils down to this question, is there a logical explanation? Or has the server run it’s life-span. We’ll all find out in the morning.

SORRY FOR THE VAGUE SLOPPY POST. HAD TO TYPE FAST, PEOPLE WERE GOING INSANE.

Edit: The problem was, indeed, Server Lag.
