I'm not trying to bring anybody's idea of fun down a notch (and admittedly I don't really play on #4). But I've noticed that when all four servers are carrying a medium-to-high load, the amount of lag seems to increase dramatically, prompting complaints from players and a generally negative feeling throughout, even affecting which classes people play (since a Pyro requires a lot less precise aiming, etc.). When things quiet down and the load decreases, things seem to be fine.

So without making a formal poll out of it, I'd like to inquire about possibly taking Tempest #4 offline, as least until the hosting and connection problems are resolved. Obviously each of the four serevrs caters to different players' preferences, but I think we can all agree that an overall laggy game damages everyone's experience on the servers equally.

i got it started last night, and people were complaining about lag once every 30-45 minutes (all servers were full), but honestly, i didnt get any lag at all.
