A lot of you guys are kinda being dicks yourselves, if you ask me. You didn't, but then again IDGAF. He's not the first to claim 'ermagherd it's teh servers!' and he won't be the last.
Everyone, including him, is making a bunch of blanket statements. It can be a server problem and no that wouldn't necessarily happen to everyone, it could be an combination of problems or conditions on either end or in the pipes.
OP -
There are two sources of time delay during zoneing - (a) disk load speed issues, and (b) internetz speed.
Run a speed checker. Ping the P99 servers and see what your latency is.
Can you stream video on your comp without a lot of buffering?
Is your RAM full?
Pop the task manager open and watch what's happening with disk IO, CPU util and network IO while it pauses.
*Completely* remove P99 and re-install.
