Let's take a gander at our dance list shall we?
mhmm..and here is a list of the dances I actually use.
Basic & Basic2 - used when dancing at parties with non-entertainers who have picked up the skilljust to dance at the party.
Popular2 - good solid dance and all the flos work. If I'm just visitingat the cantinaor waiting on the shuttle I use this one.
Poplock2 - Only because Til loves it so much.
Exotic2, 3 & 4 - Because they can be strung together to make one, nice, long dance.
I use Exotic4 exclusively when buffing now as I've had too many combattersget upset thatI was "doing the wrong dance" while buffing them. I'll tackle this little dilemma when I'm done convincing them that we don't have to be grouped for the buff to take. I hope I live that long.

I like the dance too, especially the flourishes, but I'm just a clueless audience member.
Menyou,it hadn't occurred to me that a "network problem" might account for why the dance looks bad to some people and not so bad to others. I see the drift but not the other issues with this new dance. My connection is generally very fast, and I have 2G of RAM in my PC, so maybe that helps explain it?
No, it's just very confusing if you don't know what's happening. A lot of people just think it's part of these Dances. O.o I guess a good network connection could help you see this less, but only if it did for the Speeder Bike Warp back Issue too. It's like when you see someone logon who was just there and they've been placed somewhere different than where you last saw them in the game world when they logged out, you see them "speed running" to the new location.
Tiaga (the clever monkey), figured out that if you unplug your network connection while watching a group do one of these "broken" Dances, they look perfect. Same as performing it on your own screen does. It's just the Server thinking it needs to tell others that you are somewhere else.
As far as I understand, the Devs involved are aware of this issue and know what is causing it. They have just not ever scheduled a time to fix it for whatever reason. *shrug* I know other cases of warping are a huge pain in the butt, perhaps this one is being blown off because "it affects so few."
If it's not ever going to be a high enough priority to be fixed though, I wish they would just stop giving us these and replace our old ones with less drifty versions... the drift is the bugger here.
