Topic: Issue with The Forge - unable to login (Read 1859 times)

ShadowFalls · « **on:** June 15, 2006, 10:17:18 am »

Everytime I try to login, it keeps telling me my character is still in the server yet I am not, right before this happened it started to bug on me, anyway I can be disconnected so I can login?

I get that occasionally too, you might try logging on and when you get the message exit the game entirely and restart it. Works for me 99% of the time.

Oh, and goto the forge thread page 1- goto to the webmap link, at the bottom is the shipyards, and the transfer option (you asked about it last night)

GG last night BTW

yeah I found the webmap, unfortunately I closed it reopened it, restarted the computer even yet it still is a problem and it has been over an hour.

Wish there was an option in the webmap to bump yourself off the server if you are having issues like this.

yea, I never log off the webmap page, I just close the browser. Maybe Bonk has a suggestion. I found connction speed has alot to do with it too, when my connect is slow (>42k) I get all kinds of anomolies.

I know my connection speed is not a problem, I have 10mbit down and 2mbit up

You are "Ghosted" on the server. Basically, the server did not record that you logged off when you did, so it still considers you to be on. Try rebooting your modem at the same time you are rebooting your machine. Sometimes, the loss of your connection to your ISP will let the server know you are no longer connected. If that doesn't work, your best bet is to contact Frey, and ask him to reboot the server because you are ghosted. When the server kit reboots, you will be automatically kicked off.

just tried that, no change in it. I figured there would be something easier than to have the server restarted...

KBF MalaK · « **Reply #7 on:** June 15, 2006, 12:46:33 pm »

I'm sure I'll hear about this suggestion...

I see your here right now, as well as on the forge "right now" so,

go back to the transfer screen, and transfer to another race.

Maybe you'll get lucky and crash the server thus solving the problem.

lol, amazingly enough I can transfer the race no problem, I tried that awhile ago thinking that might reset my character and drop its connection, but alas nothing

Well, a couple different suggestions:
Best Bet, if maybe Frey can reboot the server, I'll PM him after this post.
Second best, after a time you still can't get on, make another account for temporary purposes. Later, when Bonk gets back, we can have him merge the PP (if you want).
I really think a server reboot will fix the issue, tho.

And BTW, we need to get you into the Coalition Forums for the Forge, ASAP.

See this thread :

Scroll down a few posts for links, etc.

Sever Rebooted .
*Thank you, Frey*
Your name no longer appears on the server, ShadowFalls, you should be good to go.

...hmmmm very interesting idea, not sure if I could make it work, but might be worth a try.

Thanks for resolving this LordKrueg.

LOL...just make sure theres no way for other people to bump you off...that could get messy...

ShadowFalls · « **Reply #13 on:** June 17, 2006, 06:00:17 pm »

Just make it the same way accessible as per the webmap as the other various options. Couldn't say this would be easy, but it would make a better option if at all possible.
