Some people have been experiencing more lag than usual, while some have had less. Please post if it has gotten better or worse for you since the move.

I still have invisible ai, invisible boarding inf and regular(every half hour to hour) crashes/disconnects, but I've assumed it is all on my end.

-F2 is updating real slow
-Latency is much more high from max 200ms to 470.
-I see icc ships lagging from time to time and my friendly ships shooting after a while they uncloaked.
-Invisible AI hitting me happened from a time not since the server moved.

I have noticed that for some reason now my chat is on a five second delay but before it would appear in about 1-2. I just assumed it was on my end also but it started up aroudn the time the servers moved. Also I have noticed F2 updating slower also.

I get invisible ships or inf occasionally, but mostly the only time I really notice lag is when I take damage or die mid jump.

I've had a bit more lag than I'm used to, but I'm used to higher latency since I live far away from most game servers anyway.
on another note, just curious but how far did the server location move? This could account for the increase in latency if it moved away from an internet backbone or something.

They moved from Virginia to Texas, which would account for the increased latency.
I'll ask Faustus about shifting them to New York.
