    Ok, for those of you who have been following the previous two threads (Map Connection Problems, Map Connection Problems - The Sequel), this problem still exists for me and I'm sure for you also. However, a moderator has seen fit to close those two threads as if the problem is fixed, and in the process, implied that we are a bunch of idiots for not searching the forum prior to reporting the problem.

    Here is my gaming experience today.
    - Enter heredur.drakensang.com in IE and try to connect
    - Get a "cannot load page" error, hit F5 to refresh, same error, hit refresh again
    - Get to the DSO home page (HOORAAY), click Play Now
    - Get to the Login Page, enter my uid/pw
    - Wait, wait, wait while black screen displayed with nothing happening.
    - Hit F5, wait wait wait while gremlin with thumbs up page stays in my browser for several minutes.
    - Hit F5, wait, wait wait until game finally starts to load (HOORAYY!)
    - Wait while connection attempt is being made
    - Finally get to character selection screen (HOORRAYY! only one try!!)
    - Select my character, wait wait wait while connection attempt is made
    - Get "All connection attempts have failed error" hit Retry
    - Finally at Kingshill (HOORRAY!)
    - Go to Crypt dungeon
    - Wait wait wait while connection attempt is made
    - Get "All connection attempts have failed error" hit Retry
    - Finally in the crypt (HOORRAY!)
    - kill some monsters, move on to 2nd dungeon level
    - Yep you guessed it, wait wait wait, "All connections...." error, hit Retry, had to do this 7 times
    - play for a few minutes, hit teleport to go back to Kingskill, get there on only one Retry (HORRAYY)
    - Select Switch Character to play another char
    - Had to hit Retry 5 times before I got to char select screen
    - Select another char, had to hit Retry 3 times b4 I got to Kingshill
    Total time actually playing: nowhere near enough
    Total time waiting for something to happen: way too much

    So, this problem is fixed? I don't think so. There does SEEEM to be some improvement but it most certainly is not fixed. And I'd like someone, especially the mod who closed the last thread and implied we were all idiots for reporting an issue that has already been fixed, to explain to me how a server reboot that loaded a fix on Nov 24 could resolve an issue that began just 10 or 11 days ago? In case you didn't read the whole thread, mr. moderator, this problem began for all of those in the thread at the same time early last week and did not exist prior to that.

    I guess we're all going to have to live with this issue permanently as DSO doesn't seem to have a clue.
