bump please fix!

if this was happening to 90% of the server y'all would've fixed this by now, have a heart~

server pop under 900, time/attempts to log in about 3 or 4 (couple minutes).

server pop hitting 1000, time/attempts to log in 100+ so far, 3 times made it to character select only to crash "grey screen" on zone in (going on 1 hour now).

^^^the above happens every night without fail^^^

THIS IS A SERVER SIDE ISSUES PLEASE FIX

Yeah so this is a bit ridiculous , I even donated monthly and this 25+ attempts to log in every night is outlandish. I cant even get past the character select screen. I feel like this is not going to ever get fixed. Do we have to private petition? Any help or suggestions would be great...

5 times now seen character select screen and all 5 times crash while loading after that...

the problem:
1) they don't care
1a) why should they? its not like their getting paid to fix issues.
2) the above is proven by the complete lack of response in this forum from devs/staff.
3) 90% probability that "they" believe its on our end, bad internets, etc..

only thing that works for me is to log in early and don't try and zone after 5 or 6 pm pacific time otherwise i'll crash and not be able to log back on.

This just started happening to me at the start of this week. And today I can't even get to the character selection screen.

The same issues have been happening to my wife and I since the last patch. During that time I have added a ssd to my comp and done a clean install of my OS and everquest and it has no effect. The same problems plague my wife comp as well and sometimes it takes around 15m to log in. For us it is about a 50% chance of loading a character in or into another zone. Failing to zone just hangs and clicking makes it go unresponsive. Then we have to wait for the server to boot our Ld chars. We also get the failure to connect to the server message and reloading the launcher gets past that. The blank character screen comes up once in awhile as well.

I have experienced the same issues for the past month:

Logon never succeeds and never times out /freezes
Server selection is blank/empty
During zoning the client freezes

Last night was worse, so I decided to reboot my router. That changed nothing, so I switched to my backup Internet connection and that worked wonders!
Everything now works 100%, so it might be a router issue.

My ISP's are 2 different companies and the routers are from 2 seperate manufacturers. The Zyxel router, is the one giving me trouble logging on. My Linksys WRT54GL is the router delivering good connection.

I am having better connection to P99 after i switched, then I have ever had.
Zoning is fast and without the client changing position 3-4 times before the new zone loads.
I can change char multiple times, without the client crashes.
No lag issues and the small 2-3 second screen freeze is gone as well.

My setup is a 5yo Dell Vostro 420 with 4GB RAM and Windows 7 x64 (only supports up to Windows Vista). Harddrive is a 500GB 7200RPM with a 1GB AMD Graphics card

From my house, this is not a server side issue.
I tried switching between the internet connections and as soon as I was on the Zyxel, all my problems was occuring again.
