I think we need a ping kick system because a lot of times when I'm on the server I see people with ridiculous pings (some in the 800's) and it makes everyone lag. It would be helpful if a ping kicker was put to something like 500 or 600 so when it starts getting out of hand the lag is taken care of.

People need to stop torrenting porn while playing gmod.

I don't know where you got this myth from that when someone else lags, you lag. No. They lag, you don't. If you're experiencing lag when someone else has a high ping it's just coincidence. I've been playing on source servers for a long long time and not once have I lagged simply because someone else has had an 800+ ping. Lag is clientside, not serverside.

a better complaint would be that these high lag people have ridiculous telelag and u cant reg any of your shots on them

Agreed. The only time when everyone was lagging bad was when someone bombed the pipes on canyon.

I'm not sure but sometimes it's just fps lag or because of background processes but sometimes I have everything in the background turned off and i have low ping and lag like crazy. Could it be the map sometimes or my settings are too high? Anyways :focus: sometimes I see people with high ping and everyone elses ping goes pretty high and then everything starts rubber banding/teleporting.

I'm pretty sure if EVERYONES ping is high, then its the server. If its a few, its them.

It's simply the server. Deal with it or get out (sorry about sounding so stern).

Explanation (simple terms): When someone lags it is not exported to the server it is simply their lag. When the server lags all of this is sent to you players.

When the server lags, ofcourse you are gona lag because your connection is dependant off that server. FPS lag is due to your computer being crappy. I get a lot of fps lag on maps like bank and stuff where you look at a lot of models. Never noticed when you look into the sky your fps goes up, then back into a load of models and it shoots back down?

When everyone's ping is high, it's the server. Maps like canyon have an objective of bombing the pipes and water rises. The sheer amount of water makes people lag.

You have to remember, people with high pings will be lagging a lot themselves. They probably won't be able to hit people and if they do I would just ask an admin to kick them.

Then apparently you've never been on with Scoutkllr (Or maybe its the other Scout or some admin with a name like that, i cant remember exactly who) the last few days who has 600+ ping every time he joins. Just thought id point that out
