Since Monday the broadband service has been either intermittent or non-existent, giving me a latency of 3000+ on WoW.
I finish work and am home by 11am, ready to play for the day and enjoy this game.
Only to find myself repeatedly disconnected or, on occasion, lagged beyond belief to the extent it's unplayable.
Poxy idiotic NTL and their call-centre monkeys that can't offer a time-frame on the problem, nor can they explain why it's been like this since Xmas.
Another 30 mins and then I'm phoning again.

I could always whine in a completely seperate forum (and get laughed at so much I'm too scared to reply in my own thread) and post the same thing here.
Or I could whine about NTL sucking, and then convince somebody else to get NTL and laugh whilst showing off to a 13yr old girl.
Or I could be such a sour-faced child that I offer nothing but petulant pissyface almost a week after I was called a cockface for being...well...a cockface?
Now please, hush your redface and go back to 24/7 levelling up. There's a good boy.

Ohohohoho. Stop.
Sounds like someone whining to me.
They sound even worse than the spackers at Blueyonder. It took them about 4 visits to diagnose something that I told them was most likely the problem on the first day they came around.
They're crap.
I happened to catch them being destoryed on Watchdog.

I dont see Essex/Harlow on that list. Yet the chimpanzee tells me about "difficulties".
Really? Thanks you waterheaded mongoloid, I wasn't aware of that. I just waited for 8 minutes on hold to have some Welsh retard tell me there were problems.
