The past few days now, I keep getting randomly disconnected while playing the game. I would be in the middle of something, then everything would suddenly freeze and it would say "attempting to reestablish connection" and I'd get sent to the login screen. Sometimes when I try to login back in immediately after this happens, when I get back into the game the screen would be black and stay like that for a bit before disconnecting me again. I cleared my cache, and even completely uninstalled and then reinstalled the game, but it is still happening. Is anyone else having this issue?

Could it have something to do with the latest update that extended the log-out timer? It was right after that when this issue started happening for me. Maybe the system that senses when someone has been afk for over 10 minutes is not working properly and is mistakenly thinking some people are afk and kicking them from the game when they're not. I would not even be logged in for five minutes sometimes before I would get disconnected. It seems even the slightest or briefest bit of lag is enough to trigger it and cause the system to flag you as afk and then boot you from the game.

If it is an issue caused by the latest update with the log-out timer, I hope it's resolved soon. I just got membership for the Double EXP Live event, so it would really suck to not even be able to play for most of it or enjoy it because I keep getting disconnected from the game.

It's happening more even more now since the new skill was released. The lag in the City of Um is so bad almost to the point of the game being unplayable, no matter what world I go to. Even when I'm not in Um I'm still getting randomly disconnected at times. This really sucks because it feels like my last few days of membership are going to waste because I can't even properly play the game with all the lag and disconnections.
