Can't log in anymore :(

[Dazrield]

Keeps saying 'You have been booted', tried logging into multiple chars(not all of them as I saw lokey's post about leaving the good ones in the vault til we're sure it's all back to normal), got the booted message each time.

Also... I had done some vault cleanup over the last few days before the crash.. all those chars I'd deleted are now back in my vault(some I had been just testing for a build i.e. making, exporting to get the right stats then building offline and then deleting the char if I didn't like it).

Edit: I'm back in now, not sure if the problem was related to me re-cleaning my char vault or if it was something else.

Re-Edit: After testing a bit more.. the characters I've deleted previously are still in my vault, however.. if I try to log in to one to clean it out of there the server boots me.

Anyone having these issues send me, Tep, Lokey a PM and we'll take a look at it. Send us your login name, toon name(s) and what the issue is.

[Dazrield]

Am I sending PM's wrong or anything? I've still got about 4-5 chars stuck in my vault that I've deleted that I'm unable to log into and delete again as well. I sent you guys pm's, haven't heard back. Did I click the wrong button or not include the right information?

[Lokey]

Been too busy being hungover and other various things lately. Get to it soon.

[Dazrield]

Oh, okie, was just worried I had sent wrong since I didn't hear back. It's not terribly urgent, just making sure someone got the info

[Lokey]

I looked. There's a few different versions of same name characters that make this an omigod headache to sort out.

[Dazrield]

I don't believe I've ever made a character with the same name except after a deletion and waiting for a reset. Unless the server is bringing even more ghosts back.. I've only got one copy of each when I look in the vault. Main reason I want those older chars gone is so that I CAN remake chars with those names after a reset has happened.

I remember they had the same problems with that on my old server years back too.. so I'm pretty positive I'd never have done that here. I did delete all those toons already that I mailed you about.. they just haven't left my vault. Probably what is causing the doubling effect, cuz I've not tried to remake any of them, came to you guys first.

[Dazrield]

If the doubled toons are just the ones I mailed you about... I have no idea what's causing that. If there are more doubles than just that.. can you let me know which ones those are? I'd hate to think that every new toon I make comes out double :/

If it helps.. the ones that are doubled are ones I deleted a little while back when the server was having issues and books weren't working. Figured it'd be a good time to test some new char ideas since we were warned about breaking out our favorite hogres.

[Dazrield]

Someone told me that deleting too many chars during a reset might cause problems.. it's possible that I did delete the toons in question all during the same reset.

LOL since when was ' allowed in filenames on nwn? I thought I was joking about Drizz't the <:@|/.\~ and bioware hating us...

Anyway, need to make that pile of stuff match your database stuff which is tedious. There's more than two entries for Tomar for example, but don't know how that happened. (The .bak files are the characters you deleted, they're stamped with the unique id we give so that it's possible to undelete, in theory--in practice it's mostly yah, like that's going to happen )

Luckily we have a volunteer to dig through this mess for you, stay tuned.

Change that to had? You haven't seen the database for his account yet lol. I've seen worse, but it's 50+ characters...

[Dazrield]

Thanks to whoever the volunteer is

And I've never made more than one char named Tomar..

Also.. I don't even recognize the following names.. although I was gone for awhile.. they don't seem to be anything I'd have named chars:

drappizedrin_46687.bak
elvawielgalitain_46608.bak
radejooscilo_46607.bak
peromhavent_46602.bak
nandrawefer_46605.bak
