The Return of Bootlaggers Mikamon
The year 2009 started laggy for Bootleggers. Shortly after 2009 had begun, Bootleggers started to experience lag without an obvious reason. The moment the lag began, Bootleggers seemed to actually freeze, hardly loading any page and making it virtually impossible to properly play the game.

Seemingly appearing and disappearing after the first time, players just had to notice the lag. As a result, they began making topics and Help Desk tickets in an attempt to find out what was happening. Eventually, this lead to an Important on the Game Forum created by BSF2000 himself. In the thread, he informed us that they Elite Guard was aware of the lag and was working on a way to fix it.

In addition, BSF2000 told the Buzz that “Bootleggers server company, The Planet, did an audit of our servers at the beginning of the year which caused a number of settings to be altered. This caused conflicting settings and ultimately caused lag.” This suggested it is perfectly possible to solve the problem of the lag.

At the moment, the Important thread is still there, suggesting the lag issue isn't fixed yet. Hopefully we'll see a fix in the near future so everyone can enjoy a smooth running Bootleggers once again.
