Except for the voting booth thing, I didn't notice any of that, really

I've noticed a slight increase in lag (just barely), and i've noticed the slow loading of textures when i log in. Not any big problems but thought i'd mention it :)

I had a problem during Hiroko's joke contest where the pie menu would not pop up no matter what I tried... I was trying to sit down, but the edit/create dialog box kept appearing (i.e. it kept giving me the hand). I kept trying to clear it and close the edit/create menu, but the edit menu continued to appear instead of the pie menu using any click.

This has never happened before.

I finally cured it by logging out and back in. (:

I had a lag problem where I simply could not move. I was in open space and couldn't move up or any other direction. If I tried to fly my AV changed animations and I didn't move up. Stopping flying caused me to look like I was falling for a few seconds then just land.

I fixed it by loggging out and back in, but later I saw someone else have the same problem (at the no host chat).

I got stuck in place a few times and everytime I had to log out to fix the problem.

I think the slow texture load problem has been fixed in yesterday's patch.

It was possible for avatars to get snagged on objects and to fall through floors on login ==> a fix for that was pushed out today. However Ama's description sounds like an unresponsive server rather than a localized problem with one avatar.

Since "lag" is rather ambiguous I'm curious to know what kind of "lag" Aurelie is noticing. Lower FPS on the client or delayed server response.

Don't know about the bug where the edit dialog box eats the mouse clicks. That sounds like something new, but if anyone can provide a reliable way to reproduce it I'm sure it will be a quick fix.

I think the lag caused is just me personally, so no worries :)

It's funny, when I first got 0.8.0 installed, I noticed my framerate was pretty much TRIPLED in some areas.
