maybe "lag" is the wrong word --

try "warping" - or "out of sync" --

you see it with doors sometimes - ever run up to one and it doesn't open? -- your client isn't in sync with the server - so - it doesn't open.

but it will get in sync eventually - and you run in - usually- most people just take it in stride.

However - if your in an elevator - you *might* fall down the shaft due to being out of sync where the elevator car is and your character.
(and if the maker of the map didnt block the bottom - off you go to the blue pit...)

Now - i have played other maps with elevators - sometimes they work - sometimes they don't.

"if" everyone is on a good rig - speedy connection - and on a super server - you may not experience any of the above.

On a LAN game - we never had a problem with them - as soon as we went on the 'net - warping and falling to blue hell occured.

However - it happens enough (warping) to make me avoid using them.

There are simpler ways to move up and down.

i suggest you do the same.

but - hey - you can do anything you want... regardless how wrong it may be....
