Dude,u`re totally wrong.
If u have lags,change ur net connection.
Server is located in England,dedicated server,not random PCs at home...
About "retail" thing,ofc u can`t make it 100 % retail,it`s impossible,but the 'root' settings are retail here.
So don`t try to 'blame' server in this way,server is really good!
I`m playing here for a while and there are no reasons to leave this server,which I can`t say about most of l2j servers.
