Strange selection screen re-ordering - Guild Wars Forums

nunix · Jun 25, 2007, 06:52 AM // 06:52

I've noticed that sometimes when I delete a character, the remaining characters are completely re-arranged, seemingly at random; and the point at which it decides to re-arrange is also random, because I can't seem to make it occur just by creating and deleting characters.

Anyone run into this? Found a pattern? Solution? I kinda like having my characters organised a particular way, so this is pretty annoying.

and what letter follows
Roo Ella A
Roo Ella Ak
Roo Ella B
Roo Ella Bh
Roo Ella C
Ect
Hope this helps

Random aka alphabetical order.

On the left hand side of your character selection screen is an option to organize them alphabetically, by pvp/pve type or "none." none = random and it will change randomly when you create/delete characters. it IS annoying.... I too would prefer my characters ordered a certain way, but alphabetical is really the only way to go.

Well, think Siren understood what I was getting at, and I guess there's no help for it. -.- Thanks man.

yep random is, uhm, random...no rhyme or reason to it (it will make your head hurt to try and figure it out---it did mine!)

I like to make new toons every so often, sometimes I make the same class sometimes different classes with the same name....I have yet to figure out why it puts them where it does (right now I have 4 eles on the left and the 5th is way on the right, my monks are scattered thru out the grouping and my rits are at opposing ends...and I dont have it set up alpha....so nope random is just what it says it is).

sorry
