Since 1 hour or so there are all kinds of connection problems with gw...

It started with the friendslist. Trying to login again (i am still on the server!) is bugged too... need to do it twice before my friendlist is online again.

Problem is both on euro and usa servers (i cant test it on asian servers).

Last time (i was on usa server) i got an error7 and gw hung... i had to close it via the task manager (ctrl+alt+del)

There is no info on guildwars.com and i cant find info here either. Yet i know i am not the only one (my friends pm-ed me about it) and many people are chatting about it on the servers...

EDIT: Not sure if this is the correct place to post this issue. It is a technical problem but most likely serversided...

err 7 in Guild Hall, lol. Seriously though, have had a constant stream of err 7s for the past 2hrs.

And it is not my connection. Has to be server. Anyway, sure it will be looked at soon.

I'm not sure this is the problem I'm getting, but me and a few other friends are having similar problems:

When walking around in an Explorable Area, all of the sudden our character movement freezes and we can do nothing but zoom in/out, move the mouse, access the GUI, and turn our characters around and stuff.

Eventually, the screen turns black with a window saying that I have a network error and I need to attempt to reconnect. I wait around a minute in the loading screen even though it's 100%, and sometimes it asks me to reattempt to connect again...

This disconnecting/freezing keeps happening every few minutes, and it's getting annoying.

Exactly what is happening with me. This is happening every 10-15 minutes.

I was pm-ing a m8... all of a sudden i get a message that he is offline, but he was still pm-ing me!

Then i checked my friendslist and he showed up under another char of him... i pm-ed him via that name but his responses were from another char (the one he was really using). Very confusing sh*t :S

I don't know if it's connected or not, but the lag tonight was horrendous! Never dropping lower than 300ms and at times spiking to 5000ms!

Although thinking of it, it can't be that as ANet won't confirm nor deny that there is a problem.
