What's VOIP? If it stands for "Very Old" something or other, I resemble it.

VOIP = voice over internet protocol: ie people using the internet for phone service.

VOIP = voice over IP (phones over the net essentially). Bandwidth piracy IMO.

Thats right....you own the internet and should decide how everyone should use it.....GEEZ.  Its up to providers and service companies to regulate bandwidth......

Thought it was just me! I have my PC really streamlined to run this game and keep up with it on a regular basis. I completley suspected my PC as causing the probs. I did a full sweep for any spyware or any programs running in the background that are not normally on. All looked good. So a restart of the PC and relog back into the main.

All was the same. I had reports from enemy that engagements we were in I looked as if I had stalled the plane. On my end they were in front of me, disapear then reapear at a different angle then I am dying. I stuck with it as long as I could, but had to log in frustration.

Hopeing this is isolated and not related to any recent changes made to the servers. Tomorrow is another day and looking forward to this warping to stop.

Rest easy Alf, IMO = in my opinion. As a sometimes member of the human race I understand I'm entitled to one, as are you.
VOIP is a bandwidth hog using a bandwidth limited system. If the voip companies start chipping in for increased capability on the net I'll have no problem with them. The thing is they are not going to chip in until they have to and right now I understand they don't.
AH vox? You're kidding, right? Try using voip on a dialup and see if you get comparable results.

Hmmm, they pay for limited up/down links (circuits) to an internet backbone just the same as anyone else.  It's the customers that are increasing thier bandwidth use if anyone is to blame.
