Oohh, touche. The candle bites. Ohlala.
Nope. Haven't had time to cover Jom WoW. It's more of a place where I put up information stickies that are more for gameplay.
And when I said WoW Forums, I meant the WoW Official Forums. Starting spots are the General, Technical and Bug reports.
Anyway, to answer your question, yes the servers were laggy everywhere. Then restarts happen. Then laggy. Welcome to patch day, presumably your first one? It will be like this for a week, maybe 2-3 weeks while the addons are sorted out.
Where do I get info from? A lot of reading and also guildies who also update the guild with news.

But it's not rocket science to find out why lah.
