Don't take what he posted to heart, because it is mostly not correct. If it was 100% correct then this strategy would never ever work. And it does work, the majority of players on the server can make it work.

Your internet connection will of course effect your level of success on this strategy. Slow connections won't work very often. Fast connections work quite often. In between connections this thing works 25-50% of the time.

Regardless of your connection you should be trying this until its clear your connection sucks so bad it won't work.

Ok, so basically you just said exactly what I just said, except gave no explanation of how or why and use no evidence to back up what you say; but somehow I'm wrong and you're right? Really? Then please explain to us "oh wise one" how you justify that?

You say that the majority of players on the server make this work with no problem as long as they have a fast connection. So you interviewed all these people? And what is a fast connection in your opinion? Fast connection can mean 100 different things.
Like, chipset on the network card, DSL modem, Cable modem, Satellite, distance from nearest router to ATM switch, weather conditions for wireless and underground wire routes, ping rate, general consumer traffic in your area, number of people sharing a connection, etc...
See what I did there? I gave examples and evidence to explain HOW and WHY players here may get vastly different results. I never said it didn't work.

It would be nice if people who don't know what their talking about actually help the community by not posting incorrect information and letting people who do have a clue, actually help people with their questions.

Sorry, got upset a bit. Just irks me when people who think they know something tries to make themselves seem all-knowing by challenging people with actual education in the subject matter.
Meh, whatever I guess.
