Disconnects in Labyrinth

From Zizaran's interview with Chris, on the topic of the current 6 second DC timer:

On average, people have much worse connections than single 1 second lag spikes. There are people out there who are getting hit by the 6 second thing just due to the internet being crappy where they are. And this happens, like, people in California when they have bad ISPs, people in Europe, a lot of German users are having... and not to mention Brazil recently, where there were problems with ISPs where they're just trying to solve them, and there's huuuuge lag spikes.

Given that you're aware that people worldwide are getting random disconnections due to no fault of their own, what's your justification for designing the lab in such a way that a DC will completely wipe your progress and eat your entry fee? Aren't you deliberately making the lab unappealing to these people?

I was just kicked out of Uber Labyrinth. There was some error message about client stopped responding and the game kicked me out. This happens occasionally when mapping or something. In that case, I just restart PoE sell stuff in my inventory and get back in the map. The main cost being a portal and minor inconvenience before getting back to the fun. In this lab case, I lost at least a half hour of loathsome lab time. I lost two trade requests. I lost 3 dark shrines done and 2 phases of Izaro done and an Argus. I lost an Offering. Now I have to do that half hour of crap horrible content all over again plus all the stuff that was lost. This is very frustrating and detracts significantly from liking to play PoE. I am going to have to stop playing for at least the day.

GGG, please fix your game. Add checkpoints after each Izaro room or make a fun way to get the ascendancy points.

There's a chatlog in PoE folders. PoE main folder -> logs -> 'Client' text file. Not defending labyrinth, but if you really want to go through with trades even after dc, that's where you can find them :)
