Tell me what happened here: - Guild Wars Forums

Spot the problem

Happened when I tried to log in on my other account. I have my desktop shortcut log in to my main automatically, and usually cancel when I want to log in on the other. Rarely has it logged into my main account after putting in the information for the second.. but today it merged em.

I'm confused..

Covah · Aug 17, 2009, 12:18 PM // 12:18

log out log in.

i dont see ... it just looks like you picked a character to the right not visible in the first screen
omg wait ... 13 of 8 slots in use?
This one is beyond my knowledge, i dont even...

Maybe try to see how many gifts of the traveler you can get to check wether they're merged or not. Though that IS kind of weird, it may be used for something.

Songbringer · Aug 17, 2009, 01:50 PM // 13:50

send pics to ncsoft thats crazy...

vamp08 · Aug 17, 2009, 02:08 PM // 14:08

Why would you even want to contact ANET about this? That is about as much of a gift from baby jesus as you can get.

Marvollo Gaunt · Aug 17, 2009, 02:40 PM // 14:40

Woah that is crazy. I'd say go to ncsoft support about this, cause you'd probably rather go to them and have an explanation on hand than them seeing your 13 out of 8 in use and go to the wrong conclusion

Songbringer · Aug 17, 2009, 02:41 PM // 14:41

I wouldn't want my 3 accounts together because I have storage on each one. If they didn't have 3 dif xunlai storage boxes I would lose like 12 stacks of ectos about a mill in gold on each one and countless high skinned weapons/mini's. That's why I would contact support vamp08 ^^. But seriously I can see the good but why would you want 2 accounts put together when all it does is make you lose stuff. A xunlai box(losing a 2nd mat storage if you need it like me), a set of travelers gifts and a way to do more zquests.

Mr Fizhman · Aug 17, 2009, 02:59 PM // 14:59

Ask someone who got both of your account on his friendlist and then log in on one character and see which account it says is online.

Snograt · Aug 17, 2009, 03:01 PM // 15:01

Heh, people have been crying out for account merges for years (I'd love one!) - and you've done it accidentally.

Probably just as well you didn't manage to log into a character - who knows what might have happened?

Just an interesting glitch - may be of concern if it's repeatable.

This isnt a boasting thread, nobody cares

Miss Sarah Lauren · Aug 17, 2009, 04:05 PM // 16:05

ambergris · Aug 17, 2009, 05:45 PM // 17:45

Hmmm, that is very confusing but at the same time, very cool too.

BTW - Nice characters.

Jesus is not a baby anymore.

Maybe the client got confused, it really dosen't matter what your account is to the game client, the client just gets info to create the map and polys in the loading screen, prob something like retaining both accounts info somehow and just building them there, so if a friend logged in on his account it might even show theirs with yours too if your client was that bad glitched.

refer · Aug 17, 2009, 10:08 PM // 22:08

That is too warped. How did you even select it then?

Wracks · Aug 19, 2009, 04:02 AM // 04:02

It is because you bought Guild War Trilogy(or bought separately, I am not sure)and updated it by buying character slots

The game recognizes you have guild war trilogy and displays the the character slots you get by buying the game.
