The server has been doing this since the late summer, but not as bad. We aren't sure what it is, but we have a general idea. Cypriot is trying his best to fix this, so be patient.
Staff should be able to like add a plugin like that causes lag to stop like super lag stopper cause I can't connect I can't even connect at all so people are saying no support on my moderator application.
As everyone said we have been experiencing lag spikes lately. We do have clearlag however but that wouldn't help too much. I'm sure Cyp will find the cause of it soon.
In the chat, people are saying there is such thing as a lag machine. Not sure if this is true, but I know it is not my internet. The lag is getting better. I remember that the Halloween DP was OK even with 500 Players online. But during the Chrismas DP, I could BARELY move. So I think that Cyp switched host or the host had a maintenance that made less ram for hosts to fit room for more servers. /lag will tell you info about the server. I also believe that we have too many add-ons that can/may cause too much lag.
