    When rubberbanding got worse with a major patch 1.5 years ago, even flying wouldn't get you out of it. You'd just rubberband on your aerogear instead. :/

    Lately, after these last few patches, I'll be questing on my BM and have to go into the water for swimming mobs (Ugh.) and when I click fly again to land, she will rubberband right abouve the water and not even flying again will fix this. I just gotta wait it out. It has never been this bad.

    Also, not a "bug" but something that burns me is that you can't auto-path to FB/BH anymore because the "target is in another zone". Sooo annoying because that means I actually have to do work and open my map to autopath or actually spend coins to tele into an instance.

    this time flying helps. 90% of the time i rubberband trying to drop down from an NPC head in WQ. flying gets rid of that prob.

    I have also found that moving the camera angle directly above your char helps to sometimes to stop rubberbanding

    This is NOT a bug.

    This is a UNIQUE feature that only PW has and no other games can copy.

    If its really a bug wouldn't it have been fixed long ago?

    OH WAIT! We're talking about PWE, I take back what I said.

    Eh, I could name a bunch of MMOs that have this exact same glitch. All of them F2P.

    But that would go agains't the ToS.

    PWI doesn't won't you to know other games exist.

    That's true but at least in the other games they don't try to turn it into a feature.

    In this one, it does. Notice that its happening regularly lately? Only features happen regularly because its a feature and its supposed to happen, bugs happen infrequently. So if its happening regularly, its not a bug but a feature.

    You know..this bug could actually kill their company completely if it occurs on all their games. Since the only way to reliably fix the bug requires level 30 for non-elfs, or paying them RL money via cash shop, this bug in particular would be a huge issue for new players. After coming back to this game this month after quitting years back, I have personally spent many hours less playing the game due to infinite rubberbands. It was cute when I got rubberbanded on the river...not so cute elsewhere.
    When you have to log out from the game simply to PLAY THE GAME , something is seriously wrong. b:sad

    What does it look like to other people watching you rubber band? Are you actually not moving at all? I've never seen another person rubber banding.

    You pretty much just stay stationary to other people seeing your plight while 'banding. Hence why it is a bit funny to rubberband on top of the water, but really nowhere else. b:surrender

    Also..Level 99? Wow, good job. And apparently post counts are separate for forums nicknames and characters <.< Wonder how many people noticed that...

    I got rubber banded in BH100 Aba when jumping off a bridge...
    So how do you fly when you are unable to fly?

    This is the most annoying bug ever in all the games I have played b:angry

    I RB daily doin my bh's, head to the adventure assistant in plume from a decent altitude and drop down, then double-click either npc and it becomes an infinate loop while autopath takes over.. its actually kinda funny to watch that one, reminds me of a video i seen that was a spoof on a game with a portal gun (carefully avoiding breakin any rules there hehe) where the guy just keeps falling indefinately and is completely stuck in the "loop".. fly mode helps break out of that thankfully but as i said in another post today, in-instance RB'ing bites, fly mode cant help you there, and relogging will likely "aggravate" the rest of the party

    I was wondering that too and today actually witnessed it for the first time in BH59 on the cliff above drake, you do see them when they rubberband the same way you see it for your own char. xD

    Just like nerdraging say rubberband is not a bug it's a feature to increase difficulty and help balance player power.
    Like smart genius player always rubberband while beginner player not rubberband at all to balance PVP.

    I love how you put the bodys hit the floor song, because your characters body hit the floor many many times because of the glitch. How Hillarious, I also hate the rubberband glitch but I also hate the Tideborn face/hair glitches.

    You can fix that if you put Customations on

    Hm it's true that hundreds bald TB usually show up when customization off, but it's still a glitch since other race at last still have their hair . . b:chuckle

    If only the company say it was intended like that . . maybe some glitch actually just intended to be like that . . b:laugh

    I can't get past my Chrono because of the bloody rubber band "feature"
    I can get to the NPC in room 38 in cube easy, but EVERY time I have, I get rubber banded to the center or somewhere, and I die.
    I've even sent in a ticket and they told me to mess with my graphics.
    No matter what I do with my graphics, nothing has changed. This rubber band "feature" really needs fixed a bit.
    It's also terrible in other instances like Nirvana.
    Trying to heal for Tyrant and needing to run away is the worst.
    I haven't gotten past 5% since I got 100 (About 2 weeks ago) because Tyrant will constantly kill me due to me rubber banding back towards him.
    God knows how many charm ticks I've had because of this, too.
    Outside of an instance where you can fly, I have no problem.
    But what about those lowbies who can't fly yet?
    Or the people who are new and don't know what's going on?
    If you're new and you see a glitch like that, are you going to want to continue to play the game? Of course not.
    Truthfully, if I just started out and got a glitch like this over and over again, I'd quit and move on to some new game.

    (I apologize for the wall of text)
