I think my character were delted or removed?
« on: June 19, 2014, 11:52:30 AM »
Hi there, I am looking to discuss with a DM what happened to my character. I use the account Altinzi Vorten, same as my forum name, and I logged out 20 or so minutes ago and played a round on another game because it was night time. I logged back in after the other game's match was over and my character were gone. I tried logging out and back in, but still gone, just a blank character list. I had a secondary account that logged into and the characters were still there. If I did something wrong to deserve this, that is fine. I would just like an answer so I can prevent it from happening again. Just PM when you get the chance.

Thanks.

Altinzi

Are you sure you typed your username correctly?

This. Note that it is sensitive to lower and upper case letters, one capital letter wrong and it is seen as a different username.

but if it is typed in differently, would it not recognize the user name because one needs to be registered with a password before i could even log in?

Because the main server is down, passwords don't matter, hence why we have to make passwords on the server at character creation.

it seems to be working now. it may have been a capitalization issue, not really 100% sure. either way, thank you for the advice!

that is good to know. I just thought it was a secondary layer of protection. thanks abunch!
