Region: Romania, close to Bucharest
ISP: RDS
Connection Quality: Absolute Mana
On games like LoL, ping stays at 50ms all the time, even though I'm playing on the Western server (EUW), which is further than my regional server (EUNE). On my regional server I think I have about 10ms ping, if I remember right.
Also paying about 12 euros for this, cable TV included.

I get comcast internet, and my quality is inbetween 1-2. I have consistently good internet (can always stream video above 720p with other tabs running) but some days it is just amazing. I have no idea if this is because of other people using it idk.

The upload speed is limited here so I can only stream in 1080p but not in 8K. White people problems :(

My guess is that living close by Bucharest beats living a lot of USA city's.
Also Romanians are a warm blooded mediterranean ppl who do appreciate the fine stuff in live, a bit like the French and Italians

Hey at least I don't have to choose between Trump and Clinton and have to carry a weapon to go to classes and come back home in one piece. Even then, there's no telling if you're gonna get shot before you touch your weapon.

Why do I even live in this shitty country called France?!

Yeah, I don't understand why the internet infrastructure is so bad and expensive in the West. When I lived in Belgium, I was paying like 45 euros for a crappy 5mbps connection. Everyone who played AOE3 with me hated me back then.

I've never heard many people rave about Romania, however from what you say it sounds nice. At least you have some fast internet.

My ISP overcharges, but the service is pretty good. It's relatively stable, meaning that I don;t have to worry about lag spikes and the like.

Ping: 15 ms
Download: 6.57 Mbps
Upload Speed: 14.17 Mbps
The function of man is to live, not to exist.

It's easy to say that when you're a white person living in Penn.
