Lol, weird, all my mail appears to be behaving normally, maybe just a
thing with the servers you play on then, else I've been lucky!

Hehe nice! Must feel a whole lot better that way, I've always hated it
when I get lag, but that's very rare (and usually at my end, last time
I had a noticeable problem it turned out a filter had gone dodgy;
changed it and bam, connection back to normal), even playing on US
servers it's never noticeable for me, despite being a different
continent; I guess the connection between America and Europe is rather
better than that between Australia and America!
