Default Is it really worth playing games on net ?

I had been playing games on net with other human players for last 2 years , since i got a good speed connection . But sadly good pings are rare and the quality servers are decreasing !! But still people continue to play . Is it my ISP problem or there is some other reason why this is happening .IF yes then what can i do to improve my latency to the server .

Have you spoken to your ISP about this?
Are you getting the service you are paying for?
If you are then maybe you need to pay more.;)
If not,give em hell!

http://www.speedtest.net/

That site will tell you your ping and broadband speed.

If it's lower than it should be contact your ISP.
