Just so you folks know, warping like this is a function of
ping*PL/bandwidth. We have to deal with this stuff (minimize
it) all the time for the stuff my company does. Minimizing it
requires a lot of bandwidth (which is why most FPP shooters
limit the number of players allowed in a game). The only way
to eliminate warping is to not make the game real-time.

However, IMHO, the implementation in EQ is poorly done.
