Physical Stamina Automatically Dropping

[Zoomzoom]

At random times while running, my physical stamina automatically drops back to 0. This has been going on for about 30 minutes, and started to occur after I logged out with a Death Realm curse and logged back on the next day. The longest time it takes to not drop to 0 is about 1 minute, but a few minutes later it only takes seconds, making it impossible to travel.

Anybody have any idea whats going on here, and how to fix this?

The server is lagging a LOT right now..that can explain why your stamina is going nuts. Hopefully this will be fixed soon

   I am having the exact same problem...I logged out with the death curse. When I logged back on, it appeared to be finished and recovering, but my stamina seems to drop very quickly for no reason. For example, I was fully encumbered and running, my stamina dropping at an alarming rate....but then I hit 40% and it instantly dropped to 0 and I was exhausted.

Happens on laggy days. Please be patient.

hmm.. that is strange - it happened to me, I was full stamina - walked a few paces, crossed a load point - then stood still a moment - and boom  all my stamina dissapeared?  are you sure it was lag, as it was not visibly laggy at the time it happened to me?

Load points are different.. It seems the server still sees you as moving as you load, and your stanmia drops, and then after you loaded and took you first few steps, lag caught up to you.

   Just to clarify, I don't think this was a lag problem, as no other signs of lag were present. In fact, only the stamina was erratic. I am no longer having the problem, but when I was, I would be running, fully encumbered. My stamina would drop so fast I couldn't see the numbers....then it would slow to a normal rate for a few seconds, still running, then it would jump back up, so I would GAIN stamina...then it would drop again to a lower level, and then jump from 40% to 0%. It was some sort of glitch, I think, not a lag problem.

   Just for your information.

Same problem here, just that it drops from 100% - 0% once I respawn out of the Death Realm. 
Then when I got back my energy, I run and of course, it drops soooooooooooo fast... 

I think it has something to do with the curse... might be a hidden feature, not a glitch.
Or its just  ... as usual.

Edit: Was NOT suffering from lag then.

Interesting - it takes about 3 seconds to load the map/area that I entered on that day.  Hardly noticable. The 'glitch' where my stamina disappeared was after I started to walk forward again.... then boom the 'you can't move...' rubbish.

I would also like to add to it, I have had it happen to me as I was walking from my house to the library - in the same map. I stopped, went away from my keyboard for a minute or two, returned and started to move and boom! the glitch had me again!

It is definately not a LAGG thing.

yes i had it the same way. went under the shower and when i was back i ran via autorun and lost 50% of my stamina before i had the reflex to stop running.

It is definately not a LAGG thing.

 
as im, certainly the lastest person ever in this world, playing with a 64kb/s modem, i can tell you that, during im running or so, i lose stamina..even when i stop running i still lose stamina for about 1 min till the server sees that im effectively walking xd
 i must definetely buy a connection xP 

[Lolitra, Celorrim Purrty Twins]

I have a 10mb internet connection... definately not a connection thing for me.

[Jonerian]

Quite interesting how you can say that it DEFINETELY is not a lag thing...

I am just making this post to tell you, that the bandwith of your connection is NOT the only thing that affects your lag. Lag is a symptom of bad latency and that is the time it takes a piece of data to get from one end of the connection to the other.
Bandwith or throughput is only about the amount of data you can send at a given time, not about when it arrives.
Think of it as how many trucks you have. Even if you have a thousand trucks, the first peace will arrive when the first truck reaches the destination and not a thousand times faster ;-)

I am no dev so I don't know if this is caused by lag or not, but I read somewhere that this could be the issue and above explanation might suggest that it can be a lag thing if you have a 10 Mb line.

EDIT:
Sorry I actually wanted to post a link for interested people:

There a also links to latency and bandwith in the article

Thank you for that interesting snippet of information on Lagg - and what it could be.

However, I still feel it is not a LAGG issue.   I am walking along... I stop walking, am stood still for a long while - no expenditure of energy, I then start to walk, two steps and boom.. all my stamina goes - surely that is a glitch and not lagg.

[Hrothbert]

It can be a lag issue I have it happen to em at times but the lag is from when you were moving not when you stopped. The information of you using the stamina was delayed so on your screen it looked as if you had lots but according to the server you had none, when you started moving again it jogged the memory of the server, as such, and it sent the accurate amount back to you on what your stamina was. Unfortunately it is something that cant really be fixed.

[Lolitra, Celorrim Purrty Twins]

I don't think you understand me Hrothbert - I have MAXED stats, walking does not effect my Stamina as a rule.  I can run and it will hardly effect my stamina - and yet randomly, I stand still for a long time RPingh - only to lose it all - yes ALL when I take one step!  I don't think that has anything to do with Lagg or server thinking 'ooh, she has used all this stamina, better take it off of her now.'

You may be right in some other cases, but sadly I feel not in mine.
