This is a great example of a problem that spreads over time. On release and right after I saw complaints about game freezes during the KBD event.

I never even had a hint of trouble until last week. A couple slight, almost noticeable hiccups appeared.

Now it's full blown problematic. Yesterday I got my first dose of real freezing, which creates a high risk of failure and death.

I normally teleport up there right before the top of the hour, to avoid the 20 second dead time where the game doesn't acknowledge the event for teleport purposes. Today I was delayed/distracted and still standing in Edgeville. And right on schedule this new lag started anyways.

This has quickly become a game feature and it doesn't even require one to be physically at the KBD, so that should be a clue. There is something happening in the background and the server no likey.

So everyone who reads this will be like I didn't notice anything. Guess what? You're next, just like I was. Maybe that can be avoided.

To be clear, the entire rest of the game is running fine. This is very specific.
