instead blaming server for lag ,it better you check your connection first..
lag usually come from your connection

same here. its not my connections i was running l4d at max reso and it was fine. we just had a maintenance or something earlier right? but ive been lagging and what not

I've said it once, I'm going to say it again:

l4d/CS/whatever, are not "benchmarks" that you should even be comparing to. Go find a canadian server, on the east coast, that hosts 500+ people on it, and find one that uses iweb as their ISP.

If you want to find out who the culprit is, you should do a traceroute on the server, and find out where exactly your ISP is saying fuck you to Anthem's ISP.  Because I know that Talis had some issues with a west coast server (test server) due to some University of Connecticut or some crap that the ISP kept trying to route through.

Other things to keep in mind: Mouse freedom sometimes plays a part in why people lag. ie: find that mouse freedom dll and delete it.
