So I was in AB and both myself and my team mates several times experienced the usual skill-freeze. But it didn't clear. After a few seconds, red-ping bubbles, half the AB disconnect and then reconnect.
So it keeps happening and we take notes of names. There was us in AB, someone experimenting in EotN for the first time on her account and another guy in CoF. We all get lag spikes at the same time, followed by some people DCing out.
Anyone know what gives?
MASS lag spiking...server wide

Probably a 'net problem right outside Anet's servers.

Yea lots of people in different parts of the game getting lag spikes at the same time.

Anet went past their download limit for the month and now have reduced connection speeds. 
A Perfect Slayer
probably just streaming wintersday content into the game hence the lag. I've encountered the same thing since last night
Stolen Souls

Ok so maybe its not THAT big of a deal. But yeah. Lagtastic here, too. :/

Vinraith
Yup, I was getting serious lag spikes (in the middle of the Kathandrax boss fight, no less), and I virtually never have lag problems with GW.

Lagtacular a couple times in AB today, skill freezes, but few D/C's.

Meh. I had a bit of lag while doing some Ebon Vanguard quests but nothing to bad.
silv3rr
Well I'm not too sure where the servers are located (it's probably listed on their site somewhere or guildwiki though) but it might have something to do with all those snow storms around the continent >.>
But yes, I experienced it too... it wasn't SUPER bad but was quite annoying.

GW is lagging madly for a couple guildies and I right now. Just reached 10k+ ping two times in not even 5 minutes.
Ekelon
The lag is getting worse. I just err7'd while awaiting a gvg match. So did two others. Whatever it is, they better have it fixed by tomorrow for the monthly.
Feathermoore Rep
Yea theres something going on because ive gotten at least 10 in the past 30 minutes. Makes farming and playing RA hard as shiot.
I hope they fix whatever it is quick....*thinks back to that SV killing GW thread and hopes thats not it*

cosyfiep
have been having this problem for 2 days now....what gives? yesterdays was worse though, had lag spikes of 24k and one of 48k then I got dc'd a bunch of times, and one crashed my computer! (my graphics card was not a happy camper after all the lag and stuff so it rebelled).
Hope they get this fixed soon or wintersday or not I wont be ABLE to play.

I'm experiencing some lag spikes. I thought it was just me, and if it was, I would have been doing a lot of digging because I have never lagged before. I didn't know what lag was in Guild Wars until today.
Solus Spartan
I'm getting REALLY sick of this, espically farming minotaurs with a survivor... You can't map out either!
geminisaga
lagged in ha
Man Overboard
I crash every 10 minutes anyways. Don't notice anything out of the ordinary.
Stupid Shizno
i havnt noticed any real hard lag issues, always a bit laggy the first 10 secs of any major town but thats normal
Lord Sojar
The servers are indeed acting up, especially RA servers.... my god. TA and RA are a mess of lag so bad, you freeze. Ewwww.....
sagilltwins
the horrible lag stopped for me
BigDave
Tried playing this morning, within 10 mins had a 43k ping, a 61k ping and 2 err007's and at this time of day the US and Europe servers are pretty much dead. Time to find some other way to wind down after work and hope it's fixed in the next couple of days (and with the usual speed and efficiency these lag issues are normally fixed i reckon i'll be waiting a while).
Grasping Darkness
If I were to screw up on my job as much as anet does I'd quit from embarrassment.....probably be fired before that though

I Dc'd last night and took 4 attempts to reconnect but my internet access had also dropped, same thing happened to the alliance members is was playing with. Not had anything happen scince then though.
