I may be wrong, but I think it has to do with the number of people on a world.
116 peaks at about 1.6 - 1.7k people online. My lag only starts to get noticeable when worlds are 1.2 - 1.3k+.
I'd recommend world 86, since it's a Skill total (1500+) world, it gets less traffic. Less traffic = less lag.
Oh, and I definitely support a move. The lag does get to be unbearable at times.

the surface is fine-ish, you know the little occasional bumps and shakes that we have all grown used to, just as soon as my team entered a floor it was stop start all the way with ~5 second click lag.
the whole team commented on it so it isnt just my terrible laptop
i checked and for me it was ping 1000 -> N/A
dunno how it is for others

I do think it's really importaint that the keyer gets what he needs first of all. Food, runes, armour - since that will contribute to a smoother floor for all. I wish more ppl could think about this.
I agree that the fighters and skillers have better chances to gather resources during their first rooms, and it's not that crucial that they get their runes first.
However, that doesn't mean the keyer (or anyone) is free to hog EVERYTHING tho - I'd say that ppl should use their judgement. If someone is armourless, leave some mith/range armour for that person, leave the firestaff for the mage, etc.
And pls share the food in the beginning of a dung! Specially warps!
Some ppl have bad laggs and ping, and stand no chance in looting much needed food drops!
Also - don't start basing food until the fighters/keyer have a few fishes! >.< (It's easy to see when they are ok on food, they start leaving it behind)

Yea, world 116 has become a pain. Like Jigs say: it's an ok world until you go down into a dung - then the lagfest strikes! It's wierd, I know.
If to move homeworld tho, it should be to a "mid-server" that lies between the Us and Europe so none of the sides will suffer an even worse ping and lagfest.
(Some suggestions; w 70, 77, 91)

On what Sun Exit said...the drop X feature on coin stacks is a beautiful thing. I kill the only enemy in the first room and it drops 80k? I go into base and do the Drop X option and drop 3 or 4 stacks of 15k coins.
On the new home world...check out a few worlds and see which ones work good for you guys and don't have any large dung groups on them.

Citadel:
Background:
Every week we need a certain amount of resources for upkeep. Since we have upgrades in progress, anything over the minimums goes towards the upgrade. Since we don't have 25 people visit each week, one week we push back the build tick, and the next week we let it build.
Pushing back - we lose one weeks upkeep, but anything we have left over just stays, we dont lose anything. Also, if I come back, I am a whole new person. So, theoretically, 13 people can register as 25 over a 2 week period. If it's not a push back week, we lose pretty much all our ores not made into bars. The ores can NOT be used towards our avatar-thats impossible because of the upgrades in progress, of which we are 78% complete. The first level avatar is set to build at the same time the T5 citadel comes through.
Problem:
This is not a pushback week and some of the clan members did a great job of mining. We have a HUGE amount of ores. Thank you all!
But now we need it made into bars, or it is wasted. :(
Sorry, when setting limits, this was unexpected, I didn't set them properly to avoid this situation. Please, if you have any cap available, please smith some bars or do the firewood /kiln thing. Thank you!

Oh, I was confused when i first starting using the firewood and bar stations, so if you are avoiding them because you dont know how they work:
Firewood - darn thing, sometimes I try to throw wood in and it wont let me! It's because there are 8 stations, and they are in pairs of 2. You have to do all 4 sets, one from each pair. I usually do the 4 inside stations. Then you see the doors open, it's cleared, and you can start doing all 4 over agin.
Bars - First you have to empty the ores that you see in the buckets (either silver or gold). Then the stuff comes out into the mold. You empty the mold into the water trough. Then empty the trough into floor thing. When the trough is empty, the colors appear again in the bins. The silver and the gold are totally independent.
These are all very afk, one click will finish a station.

Lol Sun, w77?
My noobs clan is w91 and it has been terrible just on the surface this past week.
Haven't been on it lately, but what about w64?
Edit: Sorry Sun, I guess I am the only one who sees it as comical moving the friend chat to Jagex's official dungeoneering world for levels 100-120. But, if it works, who am I to argue? Maybe the servers are better for dungeoneering there. No offence was intended.

Yea Mila >.<
It was just a suggestion on mid-servers. I don't really know if any of them are actually good for both continents. But as Divi says, we could try out some worlds and check how they work. I dont mind 64 if it's a mid-server. (w 86 is 210 ping tho :( )
I'm thinking that Jagex are noobs when it comes to hardware. Their systems always seem underdimensioned for some reason. Or maybe they are cludding up the game code with too much crp.
Remember that update they did a couple of months back, when the game ran stunningly smoothly and lagfree for a week? The fps-rates went up to normal rates and it was just awesome!? But ofc they had to crash it with a new update shortly after. Why?? ><

Having xp share off/on: please have it off. There's no reason to have it on (or do you want that extra 3k xp in skills you're already maxed in?) and having it off helps determine bonus/critical paths which makes floors go much more smoothly in terms of moving gt/gating. Please don't hinder us keyers out of spite.
