Is the lag issues not due to the season 4 chat feature?

Dear developers, since season 4 was released with the new chat feature (which when works is pretty good) there has been lots of reports of lag issues. Do you not think that this is down to the Chat feature? You are after all chucking down loads more data (and i mean a tottally silly amount of data from all around the world) down the same bandwidth.

Would it not be a good idea to disable this feature and see if it makes an improvement?

If it does and is the cause of the lag then i would recommend perhaps a seperate dedicated voice server and bandwidth which won't crash and lag the game. Already many players and myself use seperate software for this facility.

This would mean that the game can run as intended (and al players will be able to play) and if they need to also use the seperate chat function. As it is at the minute if there's lots of chat going on somewhere it's probably causing bottle necks at various points which is causing lag for other players, which again is probably making almost impossible to diagnose the faults as they appear random.

Just a thought is all.
