No bypass. It follows you.
What if someone realizes they messed up and just wants a fresh start you know?
Then they can open a new account, or play the original account on the other regional server. Yes they will have to start over, but that's the price paid for building a negative reputation on the original account and server. It's called taking responsibility for their actions.

The game runs smooth as butter now!

Doesn't this point to it being more likely an ESO issue than my side?
For one thing, WoW and GW2 are both simpler games in terms of rendering tech, beyond the fact they are different games that do different things. A big focus in ESO is high fidelity cosmetics and there is a very large performance impact that comes with that.
It's also possible there is something on your PC that does not play nice with ESO. It could be another piece of software or a particular driver.
Or maybe your eso installation is corrupt. It's possible this can happen to any installed software, including operating systems.
Those games don't all use the same data center. Your route to each of them is different.
Each game likely uses a different data rate. ESO is highly sensitive to even one dropped packet at the wrong time. The rate in EQ was so low, even 5% packet loss was tolerable if it was spread out. But in an FPS that is rage inducing. This is particularly relevant with wifi, which most people use, because it is not reliable for high rate real-time activities.
The thing about server issues is they should affect a large number of players. We're not seeing reports of that on PC/NA right now. We know because when it happens, there is instantly a huge number of complaints. What we should expect in any popular game with thousands of players playing at any given time is for at least some of them to have issues outside of the game. If those players do not have technical knowledge, it might be easy for them to conclude they are all experiencing the same issue when they are not.
Even if one of the links was having problems, we would see greater activity in the forums about it.
With all that said, there have been EU issues lately. If you play on the EU servers, that may be why.
