I've been seeing a lot of lag spikes over the last few days and many disconnects. Through chat I've found I'm not the only one. Could the server be due for a reboot or having local internet issues?
I too have noticed those Avitar. When discovered, we troubleshoot, but if its a drop in connection beyond the server, or at any of the hops between the server and you, its unfortunately out of our control.
Ways to cycle the server gear without impacting players are being looked into.
