Draw Distance [PVP SERVER]

I've noticed that the last few days the draw distance seems to be getting worse and worse, tonight, I can't see more than 10 feet around me, and mobs are appearing on top of me as I run.

What is being done to address this issue, and how soon can we expect to have it fixed? I've been ganked numerous times tonight because I did not see alliance coming, they all popped out of no where then vanished as they ran 10 feet away only to reappear as I moved closer.

Thats the price of having a team with non-professionals.

Read the announcement forum. They made a pretty big one addressing the population issue and that they're currently working on technology which might fix this (server stress) for good.

Them not getting paid for the work they do for all of us doesn't mean their not professionals. My impression is that there are a bunch of HIGHLY capable people working in their dev team.

He makes a fair point. Comes across a little dickish but true.

The term "Professional" implies that you are being paid for your services.. So yes, this is a team of amateurs, not professionals.

I probably won't have to explain to you that the term has several meanings, including "A person competent or skilled in a particular activity".

Everything else makes very little sense in our context - Does a developer working for 40$ / hour produce better results than the same guy working for free out of personal dedication?
