Default A small problem...

but rather annoying over time. My ele has decided to replace all emotes with /boo. Emotes that are continuous are /boo every 3 seconds. Odder still only appears to be a trouble on female Elementalists...No provocative dancing for me...

I already know the answer is a "reinstall", but kind of hoping there is some other fix for it.

Thanks yous.

Guess you can always try to reinstall it. But yes, sounds like it's some problem in the .dat file, delete it an re-download it overnight.

"-image" will most likely fix it..... save your templates somewhere first or you will lose all your builds..... should take about 6 hrs on DSL, so don't be surprised if it seems "slow"

Huh, templates, screenshots, etc. are all saved in a seperate Guild Wars folder on My Documents, no need to back it up if he's just gonna delete it or repair it.

Doing an "-image" has never affected my templates. (Twice so far, once on XP, once on Vista.)
