Re: Racism and "Racism"
… that has got to be the most roundabout way anyone has ever tried to make a point. And, honestly, I'm not even sure what the point was supposed to be, for sure. My best guess, though, is that the point was something like "Turtle Team is favoring the masses over the minorities or the individual...

Re: Why is Multiboxing Banned for PvP?
Alright, so. I've basically seen the same point spoken again and again as to why multiboxing is disabled for PvP. So… let's address it. It creates an unfair advantage for the multiboxers. Some posts claim multiboxers "chain-gank" individuals. Some posts claim that multiboxers can clear who...

Re: about Diplomacy and the new pvp server
Sorry, my dude. On the bright side, the current working theory is that the ("RP-")PvE realm will be a little less crowded once the PvP realm pops. If there's no particular reason you want to hop on the PvP realm, that might be an option. Otherwise? Yeah… You're stuck with muscle brothers, ...

Are you able to log in to the character select screen? Does this issue only affect one character? I ask because a couple weeks ago, I think it was, someone was having a similar problem. They could log into the game and select their character, but once they tried to get into the game with that charac...
