Default The coup de grace of death by lag.

Ok, this ranks up in the top 3 of the most annoying death (only because its about 400k xp). I'm in mma, getting the hang of my old (and new) aliases, and I die-while poisoned-, I spawn at the chapel with 0 hp (so cant tell that I'm still poisoned), my earlier lag spike continues for about 5 seconds while I'm looking at my hp and wondering what the duce is going on; when I die a second time.

Normally, I would just be a little discouraged that I died, but would just res and get on with the game, but this is just a little over the top for me. This is lag in a small room with a hand full of melee monsters and only 1 active spell (frost wave. mine); but the lag was still so massive that I got double killed. I came back hoping that I could actually start playing again, but theres no way I could ever make any progress like this
