Packetloss bar - is this a stupid question?

I noticed last night that for the first time in over a month, I had zero packetloss...strange? It almost made me wonder if LL had actually disabled that graph because of all the complaints...is this even possible?

I only ask because while the lag was still there and things took forever to rez (particularly in large, texture filled stores), the bar was strangely showing 0.0% packetloss.

If the problem is licked, hey great. But it made me wonder :D

It depends on the time of day. For me, morning till early evening (GMT time) there's virtually no lag or packet loss at all, but wait a few hours and it'll pop up :(.

You can have my packet loss if you miss yours, Gillian... ;)

Kitty's right - it seems to depend a lot on the amount of load on the system. LL did mention a fiber upgrade in the works. Hopefully that will ease the problem some.

Definitely not complaining :) Just wasn't sure if it was just me. There were 15,000 people online when I was on and I had zero packetloss - like I said, for the first time in a month and a half :cool:
