More to report!
He just restarted his computer, logged in and played for about 5 minutes with absolutely no lag at all, which was a miracle. Then he got about 5 seconds of lag for a couple minutes, then BAM... 1 minute of lag, then five.
We've been experimenting, trying things on my server, trying things on other servers... how is this happening? He got to level 9 with his main in Gloomingdeep with only one instance of this happening, and he logged out and in, and was just fine! It was as if he hit some milestone with his character that caused his client to start sending bad packets that my server logs are mysteriously not picking up.
He made an Iksar necromancer separate from his main, which he raised to his main's level, scribed his spells, and ran around cabeast for several minutes without any problems. In need of bone chips, he #zoned to tutorialb, bought some bone chips, summoned his skeleton, and then #zoned back to cabeast. Then he started having the same issues he had before on his main.
So he made a Barbarian warrior, who started in Halas. He #zoned to cabeast and had no problems at all the entire time he was there. Logged out, logged back in later, and started having issues again.
I logged in on his account, and attempted to #zone to halas. My client hung. #zoned from cabeast to ecommons just fine. #zoned from ecommons to halas, and client hung. #zoned from cabeast to nektulos, then to neriaka, then logged out.
He logged in, and started having the same issues in neriaka that he had been having all night on his main in cabeast.
We have an early morning, unfortunately, so we can't do any more testing tonight... I figure we'll try leveling different characters the same way we leveled our mains, and see if the same problems arise.
