Yes, but he can already see that cpu usage is up between 60-90% at all times and he can probably view logs to see that other resources are being ran through.
Stefan is aware of the latency problems and has even moved a few servers to new machines (iZone + iDelteria) so that they can handle excess amounts of players, but iClassic + iEra should still be on an older machine. Stefan misses the point nine times out of ten and is nearly impossible to communicate with, so showing him videos of players lagging probably won't do anything. Hell, you'll be lucky if you can get anything besides "x-x" and "well maybe we can upgrade server x-x" when presenting this to him.
But yes, you're right, saying/showing Stefan that there's lag will mean nothing. He knows it is apparent already.

Staff have talked to him about the lag going on with iClassic and he always just looks at the numbers and says "lag is down from last month. We're on a better machine, everything looks fine." As far as what I've seen, he literally has no clue what's going on with the lag spikes specifically. Videos do speak louder than words in this instance and if we have a few videos from a few players showing the exact same lag spikes occurring then the chances of him taking it seriously increase.
iClassic isn't suffering from the high ping that the PC servers are getting because of the anti-DDoS. They're just "hiccuping" at large intervals and as far as I know iClassic's machine isn't being stressed by scripts.
