WASD for movement with Q/E for turning? How is that counter-intuitive?

As has been pointed out there's a "Set Default" button these days, which would be more obvious to a new player than old ones who aren't used to it being there.

This does need some work; not least due to inconsistencies between the Real Numbers on a power and the Real Numbers on its effects and some powers still listen effects that they no longer have or not listing effects that they now do.

That's FF4, the most recent patched version of FF3 is still supported for the time being. Of course, given that the dev channel is already at FF8 due to their pathetic obsession with copying Chrome at every opportunity, who knows how long they'll continue to support the 3.x branch.

Like I said, not from our planet.

Well, they sort of are, depending on how strictly you define "aliens"; they are not from our planet.

High fragmentation on a slow disk can cause jerky gameplay while loading textures and fx but it won't have any significant impact on your network performance (and thus your netgraph) and won't generally cause the network-induced symptoms of being stuck in place or excessive rubber-banding.

Whilst periodic defrags are a good idea in general for performance, especially on drives with a high rate of change, they won't help a near-capacity disk in the long run. The only thing that'll help there is deleting stuff off the drive or buying a bigger (or additional) one.

Vista or Win 7, perchance? You'll need to either launch a Command Prompt as Administrator and then run the command or change the path of the .txt file to somewhere you have permissions to such as your Desktop or Documents folder.

As far as your ISP goes, there's not much more you can gather than will be "useful" in the sense that most ISPs won't even get as far as asking you if you've done any diagnostics because the only two solutions known to them are rebooting your equipment or having an engineer sent out Having the trace from your laptop will certainly help in showing that it's not a problem with your PC.

Depending on how good your ISP is, explaining that you're getting connectivity issues to some services (don't say just CoX or they'll claim it's on NCSoft's end - which is possible but less likely) and that the problem appears to be with their Upstream provider/Level3 will hopefully be enough to get them looking in the right area if they're not already aware of the problem. You might have to battle through a few layers of support to find someone that knows what an upstream provider is though

Please do. One thing to add is that posting the pathping in [ code ][ /code ] tags makes it much easier to read as it does a better job of preserving the formatting

Personally not had any problems with the latest drivers, but then my card is much more recent than yours. Often past a certain point, new drivers can either simply no longer improve performance on older cards or actually degrade performance as the manufacturers don't really bothered testing against the hardware as rigorously any more.
