Sadly, I got lag while out in Balmorra questing. Everything would freeze up for a minute, except chat, and then would slowly get better again. Was happening all day. (Not on a Mac, and definitely not on dial-up. Yay 12MBPS!)

Just consider how many hours the servers are down and count....
It might not be much to you, but for me, get money costs me effort and I don't like to be robbed, not even for 5 cents.
Like I said, I'm a new player...and this is not making me happy nor convincing me to buy a new pre-paid card.

That's an interesting question and one I've always wanted an answer to. I'm in this situation every Tuesday since I've found that the servers often come online sooner than expected. So I will sign in and out to see if they're back up. I've never left it in the server screen for more than a couple of minutes, thinking that it wouldnt update there anyway.

Not during Daylight saving time; it's CDT then.

Come on folks this is Bioware's first MMO insert excuse, by additional excuse, blah blah.

CDT is used when we're in daylight saving time. Technically they are different but in most cases CST (or equivialent in your timezone) is used throughout the year as everyone knows if it's summer or not.

I was about to say how long does it take to restart a server. But then I realised its running swtor I know how much time it takes to shut this game down on my desktop I can only imagine how long it takes to take the whole server down. Go to task manager and kill it its takes 60 mb of ram and is taking all 7 cores to 100%
