    Am I lagging? Is my character just stuck? I couldn't tell. Many times I was unable to move location, but I was able to look around and turn. Was that lag or a bug? Often times I had to log out to fix it. Sometimes it would rapidly do the actions later (thus lag). An icon indicating loss of connection (or just slow communication where the lag is over some threshold) to the server would be nice.

    I think it was a bug.

    I don't think we should have lag icons, because it breaks immersion.

    Now showing your ping time in the Settings window, especially as a "over the last two minutes" graph, would be a nice way to both have this information available, and get it off the main screen.

    If you are lagged, immersion is already broken. But perhaps something that can be toggled?
