Even dail-up not as limiting as it used to be. There is a lot more to internet connections then point A-B, as it really is more like A-h-w-b-r-s-........Those backbones, and links between relay points in the past 5 years alone have improved dramatically. Also services severely limitting connections has ebbed as quite frankly people were not tolerating it.
Though perhaps having a high ping, quite often you'll find it means little once online....What I've learned to use as a standard is NOT how high anothers ping is (within reason)...Yet how stable is it, as I've seen some consistantly running 500-700 pings and their play is smooth and in-time.
All this "i'm so social I sit on the forums all day, yet when it comes to my play I become an anti-social recluse" is simply hogwash.
