New player PvP questions

[Retrac241]

I have some questions regarding PvP and this server. Basically I only played PvP in 1999 to level 10 or so and I haven't played EQ at all since 2001. I did, however, attend the PvP event yesterday.

My question is mainly, how in the hell are you guys playing melee characters with the amount of lag on the server? I'm not trying to whine or anything I'm just legitimately curious. For me, anyone moving at more than walk speed immediately starts warping all over the place. Is this normal? If so, how the hell are you supposed to follow people/get hits on them?

Am I missing something or is this just something you get used to or what? I could barely land any hits as a warrior.
