Several this evening not good !!
I lagged out a few times last night around midnight, but when i logged back in other guild members said they hadn't lagged out.
I couldn't access the website as well same time, however i could browse other sites, so not sure if its only specific to certain ISP's
I have also experienced some lag outs whilst afk over the past couple of days
What ISP are you on?
Virgin media. Usually its just afk I barely ever lag whilst playing, maybe its the pc having a siesta
I'm also with VM. I've ran a lot of tests and noticed at certain times of day the connection drops for just a second or so, but it's enough to disconnect you from the game, but it never seems to happen when there's active traffic, so shouldn't happen when you're playing. I believe it's some kind of automated maintenance.
What I did to resolve it was to have a terminal open running a ping to google infinitely looped, so the connection was never marked as "not in use" and the disconnections stopped. Was worried about whatever that maintenance that happens not happening, so if doing that I'd recommend rebooting daily give or take, just to let it do whatever it does.
I actually tried phoning VM to ask about it but gave up after about half an hour of not even getting through to a human.
