The zombie event ended and the lag mostly went away. Cause, meet effect. I know not all servers were bad, but Alleria was completely borked for the entire duration of the event. Really hard to kill, say, Naj'entus when he doesn't throw any spines. Really hard to kill Illidan when nobody can see the eye beams, because the server lag is so bad the eye beams kill the tanks before we can see them. The events, the entire thing from 3.0.2 until about a week ago, was absolutely horrible.

If you're on a low pop server, fine, you probably had a great time with the event. Unfortunately, every world event on Alleria, or any other server in our battlegroup, just causes the server to crash, over and over again. Doesn't matter if it's the Easter event or brewfest or even just a Horde raid on Southshore (lol, like there are any Horde on Alleria anyway) the server bogs down and eventually crashes.
