You had SEVERE connection issues!

Last year I had a few days when I was kicked out of camps every 5 minutes.
I blamed the server and SteadFast networks. For nothing!
I blamed my (expensive) ISP. For nothing!
It was a traffic bottleneck on the international carrier (Telia) between Paris and New York.
:wink:
p.s.
Let's forget about your "interesting" computer.
Why do you always think your connection is perfect and their connection sucks?

This was something I hadn't seen before. And since only some players were going crazy and others were still normal, I'm confident that it wasn't anything to do with me.
Josh,

All the players with that behaviour (getting thrown out of camp and coming back)
have ISP problems (traffic bottlenecks on their route).
If you see only one and the rest are fine, that guy has connection issues.
If you see 2 or more, you are one of them!
Keep in mind that.
:wink:
