Elevators/lifts not in same position on my box's

Hi, I'm new to this forums :)

I have been 4-boxing for some months now and have reached level 66. I'm doing this from one computer using Keyclone.

Hardware:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual 5600+
NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT 512MB
3,25GB RAM


My problem is with elevators/lifts. On my main, Brutala, and on my 4th box, the lifts are in the same position. But on my 2nd and 3rd box, the lifts and not in the same positions as the 1st and 4th. This means the 2nd and 3rd box toons will fall of ledges when running onto a lift from the top, usually with fatal outcome. Also its quite annoying to not be able to move everyone on the lift at the same time, I'm wasting time.

I really cant figure out why this is happening? You would think that the position of the lift is always the same on the server, no matter what lag i might experience, else other players, non-boxers, would also experience this when entering lifts with their friends etc. Therefore, the issue must somehow be connected to my setup. Add to that I definitely don't see any lag above 100ms when sending commands to the four windows, but the lifts position can be delayed more than 5 seconds, but it varies. Sometimes its only 2 seconds, other times its more than 5 seconds. I'm quite certain that the maximum delay time is only limited by the time it takes for the lift to go from one end to the other, for example from top to bottom.

I just found out that the issue is not obviously tied to specific windows or accounts, since it sometimes is window 1 and 2 that differs form 3 and 4, other times its 1 and 3 vs. 2 and 4. but here comes the strange part:

It is ALWAYS the main window, and one of the others versus the two last. I hope my explanation makes sense...

I have tried the wiki, FAQ and numerous Google searches, but no one seems to have had this problem before.

Can anyone help?

EDIT: Additional info.

What's your latency?

And by the way, funny you posted this. When I do Oculus and my chars are standing on top of each other when I summon the drake mounts, only one gets on the drake mount. But when I spread out a little but and summon the drake mounts it works fine.

But that's probably unrelated. I'm guessing you have some latency problems, if not, then I don't have a clue. :/

I noticed that last night. I think it has something to do with summoning 5 drakes, then your characters all try to jump on the same one, and 3-4 despawn.

As far as lifts go, my experience is that it tends to be one character who see's the lift at a different position. It doesn't happen much, and I just move them individually accordingly.

Yeah, i've had this with the undercity lifts sometimes.
The main would see the lift about a seccond or two differently than the rest, but it was not enough to make anything bad happen when trying to enter it, prolly cause of the door (usually) blocking you from entering that lift if it isnt there.

i've splattered my poor shaman many times in undercity during peak times on weekends :) falling death x4 ftw!.

Latency is from 100 - 150ms, which is perfectly normal, since it's the same when playing solo with only one instance of wow. I wouldnt know about the drake mounts ,havent reached level 80 yet on any toon :P

I found out another strange thing though, that may, may not be related: Sometimes only two or three of my four toons get credit for escort quests. Anyone else tried that?
