The regular servers are lagging hard too. This game is a clown show.

Cormyr is NOT a VIP perk. It is limited access server that is GATED by VIP status. I do consider being able to run the Lanterns in the Mist event as a perk and to draw people in to help test the 64-bit server.
Cool story. I don't see anyone saying it is a perk. Certainly not the person you quoted.

Oof! Lag is laglicious on Cormyr right now. A slide-show would be better. Had to quit out mid-adventure.

Given up playing, am off to play another game. Standing for 2 minutes and shooting but not hitting is not my idea of fun.

The red text implies it is being paid by having VIP (paid service) is what I took it as. And there are plenty of other posts thru the forums about Cormyr being a fail for VIP service.
Then you should definitely reply to one of those instead of making up something that you think the person meant.
As a side note, I'd really say that anything that is only available to VIP could be considered a VIP perk.

I think you will find Orien is lagging as hard as Cormyr, if not harder!

My apologies for not being too clear on my thoughts as it was mostly just a rage-post as I have lost 2-3 HC characters to this "better" "64bit" server due to lag. This server you have to have VIP for in order to play and do the event. The comment "guess I'm buying the freezes by the dozen" was complete and utter sarcasm (i know that text doesn't convey and that is my fault entirely). Meaning that why am i paying to play when i should have just stayed premium if its the same product I was under the impression that the lag would be mostly/if not all fixed up.
Curse the snake-oil salesmen promising cool looking pixels.

Starting to think all the servers were 64bit servers but not marketed as such

I have posted the info elsewhere but to sum up so it is easier: The Cormyr server is a test for 64-bit servers. They limited the number of people by making it VIP only (imo also to get some more money). This server reduces/eliminates 'most' of the server-side lag. Tolero mentioned that because of that reduction it could throw off the timing on some scripts i.e. instead of going a,b,c,d it could go b,c,a,d for the scripts. There was also the distribution system that was not playing nice in the 64-bit server that was tweaked and mostly fixed. Codovan in the last Fridays at Four said there should be a update this Wednesday November 6th, that will address some of the sources of lag. (He stated that a lot of work/overtime has been done since the server went live and they would be taking this weekend off, him included.) The sources I use are mostly the Fridays at Four and I forgot who posted the list from Discord that added more details.
I hope this helps explain a bit more about Cormyr.

Most of the crew i know are only on the server for the first time ddo points and to pick up whatever lanterns while progressing thru that favor earning ddo points. There is over a dozen of a core group of players i run with that bought a year of vip when the vip program was released, but we all talked and have decided we shall not be renewing due to the repeater nerf in heroics(not only this but this one was the last straw).
