I can see 21,700+ are in there, but I’m still getting socket closed. When I try to login with an alt, it tells me that I can’t log in with more than one character at a time… So the character that I was using when the server went down is somehow “still” online? Yet I can’t get into it. Something about this is messed up… If I am not connected, how can my character still be online? … So, here’s an idea… Instead of trying to sell me an omega account, how about just kicking my other character offline, since I am not connected to it anyway? ---
