Greetings all,

We wanted to let everyone know that our Realm Technicians are aware of the reported latency issues being experienced across several battlegroups.

They are looking into the cause and hope to have this issue addressed as quickly as possible. When we are provided additional information we will provide an update.

Please keep commentary civil, on topic and in accordance with the Code of Conduct.

Q u o t e:
Can you at least ascertain if this is due to the patch?


Maintenance isn't for several more hours so any technical issues would likely not be caused by that.

You so just confirmed that the patch was today!!! Sorry, had to do it =P


Maintenance =/= patch. :) Which is why I said maintenance. :P

This ought to be a sticky that pops every Monday night before patch because this is not isolated, its a result of you guys getting an early start.


No it isn't, Boothead.

Q u o t e:
I guess your technicians never heard Bloodlust was screwed, unless it's still being worked on?


Yes, all other reports are still being looked into and worked on. I was simply providing the update I had available for Ruin and Vindication.

From what I've been able to determine there is intermittent latency on many battlegroups at the moment. Last word I received was that our DBA's are looking into it.

Q u o t e:
Im getting lag issues on Darrowmere server. Primarily on the Eastern Kingdoms side.


That has to do specifically with Whirlwind, Stinkybeard, and may be related to the troubles the realm experienced previously. Our Realm Technicians are working on tracking down and resolving those issues.
