Riot confirmed does not like us West Coasters

I and a bunch of other west coasters that i have spoken to whilst playing League have experienced extreme lag issues since the server move, Don't get me wrong not like i have a crap-top nor a toaster of a router but this is insane, My usual 32 ping before server switch with constant 60 fps throughout the game has now been reduced to 72 ping with 60 fps walking to lane and fighting my SINGLE laning partner but as soon as the jungle or mid laner ganks my fps shits itself to about 15-25. I mean Yay! our East Coasters and people near the new server are jumping for fuckin joy with their new ping but ya kinda left us West Coasters to rot in ping hell here, That's all from me feel free to argue in the comments or agree with what i'm saying, It doesn't really matter anymore.

Lmao, 75 ping is bad? Wtf? Honestly, you've all had access to great ping for 3-4 years, I'm happy east coast actually gets good ping. Mine went from 154 to 50. Also, fps is 95% a computer problem.

Bro, I have some bad news. If you're dropping to 15-25 FPS, that's your end. You have a toaster.

Also, I'm not going on "hurr durr deal with it wester", but Riot stated they will work on the connectivity issues. It's not you ping thats the issue they connection to the west coast is fairly weak atm. Your ping may be 72 (which is 100% playable even to challenger) but your connection is like 50%. Riot really needs a packet loss counter, this would clear up a lot of issues. Like people have said tho fps drops are on your end....

Anyone who thinks FPS is relevant to bring up in a discussion about network connections should not be discussing network connections.
72 ping is fine. You might notice that last instant reaction not being picked up every once in a while, but other than that it's perfectly normal.

Ermmmm, before the move my normal ping was 86, (now its about 65, and it doesn't seem to make a difference) and I never had problems like that. Once and a while a connection issue but that was my end. Game ran smooth...72 is not bad at all, at least not enough to cause the issues you are describing.
