You've probably seen that chain symbol pop up while you're just minding your own business playing the game. Or maybe you just get exited out and it says "Connecting to server...". I hate that chain symbol and when I just get exited out and the connecting to server messages appears. I had the chain symbol when I was doing a dungeon once. Sometimes you lose connection at the most important times. What's the worst time you've ever lost connection?

Mine was on the final boss of marleybone (can't recall his name right now) I was just about to cast the death blow, and BAM! Lost connection. I was soooo mad.

I had that problem a lot with my old internet provider. It's only happened once with my new provider, but of course at the most inopportune time. I was in Crimson Fields (MooShu Dungeon) and at the end, had already defeated the first boss and was about to cast the final spell against the War (?) Oni and the connection dropped. Internet was down for an hour so had to start over and redo the whole dungeon. What was worse was that I had needed the Oni to get my next spell card and had the request for it for a long time before I was actually to the point I could enter the dungeon.

I am not sure that this is the worse time, but I do know that it was the weirdest. I was in the drum jungle on test realm, and a girl asked if I had lost connection about 5 minutes ago, and I hadnt, which I thought was weird, because everyone else seemed to have, at that time, and even now, I have thought that you couldnt interact with any characters, npcs, interface, etc. when you lost connection, but everything seemed fine. And of course, a couple minutes later, I saw the disconnect sympbol, and when I got back, I was in a place I was like 30 minutes ago, everything I did after that point still logged, soooo I just shrugged it off, and is still wondering about it...

Mine was when I was in waterworks and was almost to the first boss and then it just froze and I had to log off. Good news is I restarted it with other people and won but still like 45 minutes of my life wasted. But I have to say waterworks has to be one of the worst places to lose connection or have some sort of computer problem.
