Ping = lag either form somethign or from someone. It tells you the persons connection.

I beleive high ping is good and low ping is bad.

Ping is...

The amount of milliseconds it takes for the TCP packets to go from your computer to the ROBLOX (in this case) servers.


A higher ping causes latency problems, and to the user, appears as lag.

Also, if you open CMD, and type in "ping www.roblox.com" as a command you can know your ping...

@Grimy
NOPE. Real high ping is bad. Low ping is good.

Best Pings: 1-100
Normal: 100-130
Bad: 140-160

If your ping is over 160, then you must have REAL bad connection.

The higher the ping, the higher the lag you're causing.

Download a ping detection application.';nuff said.

Low ping is good, high ping is bad.
Most games I don't go to I don't lag.
Support anyways.

Sorry,but no. High ping is bad and low ping is good. Ping is the wait time between the server and your computer, or how long it takes for a signal to go back and forth. To remember this, replace ping with lag and keep the way you're going.

Also, one person with a high ping doesn't lag everyone on the server, You might of heard rumors of that happening but it's only a wait time between the server and you, if the servers program would wait on each and everyones ping before going to the next person, that would slow down everyone, but I've seen people with 100 - 130 people on a gmod server and there's barely any lag. my ping is usually 13 - 9 which is extremely good.

Grr. I didn't check the date as I usually assume anything on the first page is new/recent.

I know I am definitely not causing lag. My ping is lower than one. Average ping is 0.04.

Basically, higher ping is bad, because it usually means the host is receiving your information later.
Try to find out where servers are located in relativity to you. If they're far away, i.e. if you're on the West Coast, and the server is in the UK, your ping will be pretty bad.

If you had a hard time reading that, it's probably because I'm horrid at summarizing and paraphrasing.

It's easier to just integrate a ping level.
Sure, you have Shift + F3 (or F6, whatever), but putting it on the screen by default as a customizable GUI (for devs) isn't too hard.
