Disconnected and "other person logged in" - Guild Wars Forums

Woutsie · Jan 18, 2006, 07:20 PM // 19:20

A strange thing happent to me... I was in a party and already payed 333g for FoW and when we entered, GW told me that the connection has been lost. So, I log in again, and I get this message someone else has logged in on my account. Is this a bug or something? I immediatly changed my password ...

*edit*
Ok, I have entered UW for the second time and I get a disconnect popup again...
I see people spamming in ToA they are getting the same problems too!

Sounds like some sort of uber mass-hack.

Sorry, that just sounded cool.

I'm not really sure what to suggest except to run a virus/spyware check and make sure you've not got any keyloggers anywhere. Other than that, head over to guildwars.com and fill out a support ticket. ANet might be able to help.

Yep, strange things happening. My friend couldn't get into Tombs, Neither could I.

exactly what is happening to me right now :S

very stupid :/

Same happened to nearly all of my team in tombs.. Luckily we havent got into a fight.

I think it took around 45mins for the last to load in?

Just sounds like you lagged out or something mid transit to FoW or Tombs. Then when you logged back in, the server still had you signed in and in transit. That seems like it could happen.

Yup, got neterr=40 on entering team arena's, everybody got back on (whole team had it, they were guildies), and we entered again np.

Later in Fishermans some people were also asking about it, they had failed to get into the UW.

Beware of popups that say: "Your login session has expired" that IS a hack program and if you enter your password on that popup it will give away our password. ALWAYS use the MAIN login screen no matter what. NEVER use a login POPUP window to log back in.

Well that's a load of bull sh*t.

As I rarely get that, but when I do, I've had this come up since a long time ago, lol, a lotta months, and I've entered my P/W to continue, NEVER been hacked or anything taken.

Yeah the exact same thing i got logged out and told that "Someone had logged onto my account from another client" or something along simular lines. When i logged back in i was in the same place i was before (standing in druids overlook) and saw that 6 other people had the exact same thing happen to them and couldent go outside the camp without being logged out

Jiao Yang · Jan 18, 2006, 10:09 PM // 22:09

and there was me getting all worried that i had been hacked

I was in tombs... we beat UW and on the loading screen for burial mounds it took a while then disconnected. I logged back on and it did the same thing on the loading screen for Tombs as that is where i last was. So i get back to main screen and this time log on with a different char and everything is fine.. a fwe minutes later i get disconnected as 'another client has entered your account' or something like that. I got all worried but now its happened to everyone i feel a lot better.

/stops to take a breath
