This is truly a game changer for me. I know that nothing has changed on my end, has the server moved? I realize that there are players who do well with a 100 or higher ping but I'm not one of them.

I've been dealing with ping issues on the XI servers since I've been here (4+ years) and it's either something you learn to deal with or you just don't play. I've tried everything possible to improve my ping and even changed from DSL to cable which put my speed at 20+ mps, and still no improvement on my ping. We're just too damn far from the servers, and subtle changes made to networks in our part of the US can have a huge impact on our ping. I decided a long time ago to just deal with it and do the best I can with what I have. Yes it's a pain in the ass but somehow I still manage to play fairly well and win occasionally.

The reason I started playing this game and joined this clan was to have fun and laugh, which I still experience occasionally. Forgive me for attempting to have that experience on a more consistent basis. Instead of cherry picking some of my comments, try to understand that several people on the west coast, that all have reliable connections, have started to have consistent ping issues within the last couple of months. As for your comments regarding laughter, I enjoy laughter and humor very much. You don't know me and I don't know you so please don't assume. I don't recall insulting you, so that comment is difficult to understand. If your comment stating that you would support me abstaining from playing in protest is not in jest, I will do my best to stay away when you or anyone else who has a problem with me is in-game, I want everyone to have fun .

I support your claim, but you're more interested in being dismissive and condescending than actually getting an answer to your query. Perhaps if you were to occasionally start a new thread on the message boards that isn't critical of the COD2 servers in some fashion, or act passive/aggressive in your responses to those who took the time to try and answer your questions, you might get results more to your liking.
