I was gonna report more, but I think it's best to keep it to one or two problems per thread.
1: Unable to respawn in games. This one is a game breaker, it's literally happened at least 5 times in the last week. And, it can be reproduced easily, with bad timing. They cause you to lose any possible SP gain from the battle, as well as wasting isk without reward.
First example: In ambush style games where there are random spawns, if a player places a drop uplink and you use it to respawn. If the uplink gets destroyed, or wares out, at any time during your respawn timer, it causes the timer to go to --:--. At this point, the voice asks you to please select a respawn point. Except in this case you can't because the controls to do so longer pop up, and the game no longer responds to control input. You're either stuck there until the game times you out for not respawning, or until you leave the battle.
Second Example: In the domination style games where you capture the null cannons. Once a null cannon is captured you can select it as a spawn point. If the null cannon is being captured by the enemy team, and you select it as a respawn point to try and save it.. If at any time during your respawn count down, the null cannon control fully changes hands, it has the same effect as the above example. You end up stuck in purgatory unable to respawn unless you leave the game.
2: Internal server error disconnects. The main cause of this, in my experiences, seems to be caused by lag while accessing the market orders. I've had this happen several times, before I figured out the only workaround I know of.
How to produce it: While purchasing skills from the second tab. If you go to buy a skill and the buy order window doesn't pop up. If you try and buy another skill, or item from the regular market, once the lag catches up it seems to try and process both order windows at the same time. This has caused an internal server error disconnect for me every time. This will happen any time the market lags on trying to buy something, if the person tries to buy something else before it catches up. That includes trying to restock multiple mods for a fitting.
The only workaround I've been able to do is literally to sit it out and wait for each order to go through, before starting another ... And I've had that take upwards of 5-10minutes before.
