first, is there any way to find my own posts on the forums? it seems like the search function is crap, rarely finds anything near what i search, and takes forever to do it. and when i click on my account there nothing that seems it might show my recent activity or post history or even recent posts. can you only manually find posts by looking page by page in a particular thread? are the forums for SK really that bad?

last thought, is this lag ever going to get fixed? its getting to the point where sometimes its unplayable in clockworks. im teleporting into attacks/enemies or spikes. or just rubberbanding or running fast in some places to catch up to whats actually happening or going really slow. sometimes just freezing up until death. before the last week or so i never lagged in this game. its not my own connection, i know a lot of other players are complaining about it as well. are they any plans to fix this at all? or has OOO even addressed the issue

1) Well, if you bookmark the links, then you can keep track. (Just a silly way.)

2) The lag comes from you, not from OOO or the servers. It's not really a bug, but just from your internet.

[EDIT] If you're internet connection is laggy, you will lag, but not for the other players. The player's lag depends on their internet connection.

not likely, my internet has

not likely, my internet has nothing to do with the rest of the players complaining and many of us (mostly the people from my guild) who dont lag in any other games, and never used to lag at all in spiral knights itself before, are lagging now. when its like that its safe to say its not our connections, at least imo.

so if you didn't personally save the thread you posted, its gone forever? thats a bummer i wish they put just a bit more into their forums. the search function is ridiculous

searching the forums

You are right that the forum search function does not work well. Fortunately, the forums are part of the World Wide Web, and you can use various web search engines to do the searching for you. For example, you could search Google for "spiral knights forum viconaut". Or, if you know Google's search syntax, you can restrict your search to forums.spiralknights.com like this:

Drupal doesn't suck. They just need to improve and add more features.

SK servers don't suck badly. They just need to be upgraded.

Double Posts suck. And for the first time, I've never noticed. XD

Until you can procure a screenshot of a latency map displaying a bad latency on Three Ring's end, you have no right to complain about latency.
