Q:

Never played a game that has as great server lag as consistently as GW2, never.

The game has been sub-sub-sub par in terms of lag for about 8 months now, on/off for an hour or more at a time, every day. Rubber bands, teleports, delays, is the order of the day in GW2.

Do we all have to move to America to play on the sub-sub-sub par servers?

I find myself not playing as much anymore, but when I log in this is the usual breakdown:
- kitten these graphics are great
- Join either PvP or WvW
- Try to play
- Watch movement skills fail during lag
- Fail to hit enemies (delay/enemy teleporting)
- Enemies/allies teleport around
- Somehow manage to kill players even with the ridiculous lag while playing a melee
- End up dying to the awesome teleporting/rubber bands/delays
- Alt F4
- Watch paint dry while wishing the servers could just not suck

Have to either join WvW and zerg+1 mash and let the blob win for me, or not play at all, roaming/skirmishing/SPvP is impossible.

Oh, and ignoring the issue as you have been all this time is possibly worse than the server lag itself.
