Sounds like you have a poor connection to the server. Whenever you pick a server to play on, seek out servers with a long "ping" value. Anything more than 100ms is considered problematic, although purists will want a ping much lower than that.

Also, you might want to tweak your connection settings: viewtopic.php?p=824459#p824459
