I live in Australia, and suffer from terrible lag.
I remember this one time i actually got TWO YELLOW BARS of connection! AMAZING!! that's the highest I have ever gotten!!
If spiral knights had better servers, this would be fixed. I know, however, that many people have fine connection, so...
Spiral Knights needs servers in Australia! and other places too. I don't know where the nearest server is, but it must take a long time to get there and back.
My internet is absolutely fine, I have an above-average connection, which I can use for many other games at a speed of up to around 30mbps.
My computer is also absolutely fine, I have a quad core 3ghz processor with 8gb RAM. (I don't know about my graphics card, but I can handle minecraft and crysis 2 on high graphics).
So spiral knights needs better(or more) servers.
that is all.
If you want to pay for the new server, you can have it.
