It's the same with Windows Key+L or Start > Log Off > Switch User, but I mentioned before that this is not an option for LAN Center computers as the timing software they use locks you out of most normal Windows features. This is where I believe it is going to be needed the most. I personally game at home (now that I don't work at the LAN Center anymore) & do not have these kind of problems.

Maybe nothing wrong with it, but this is not a suggestion to fix anything; it's an improvement idea.

I believe the suggestion to enter the password was to re-enter the game once you've locked your game. The other suggestion had to do with character deletion.

The main issue is having to re-enter the password multiple times when switching between character. When all I'm doing is bumping characters login times, the means I'll have to re-enter it about 10 times.

This is the same issue. That's why I originally said the server or character selection screen. If the decision was to load the character selection screen, then you could just back out to the server screen. If it was the server screen, then you could bypass that step.

Locking the game would mean that your memory would not be dumped; therefore, you would not need to reload information into memory on re-entry of the game. Logging out, then back in currently means you have to reload the area that you are currently in. If you were to log into another account, then the memory would be dumped & information for the new account/server/character would have to be loaded as normal.

Another reason why I have made this suggestion. I currently have 6 different characters on 4 servers, so I get where you're coming from.

If you were to get disconnected from the server, I think you would have to log back in anyways. Not much that can be done in that case. But you would have that option if you logged out on your own.

WoW currently has two options on it's logout menu:

• Logout (which drops you back to the character selection screen)
• Exit Game

GW currently has three options:

• Logout
• Exit
• Character selection

Of course GW doesn't have different servers, so server selection is a little irrelevant in this case.

Yeah. That was my second suggestion made in this thread (first to address security concerns). You are the first person that has found this favorable.

Although a console command would not have to be the only method. There could be a way to lock the game via the logout menu.

I actually like this idea. Good thinking!

And I played Silkroad for a time. They made it so that you had to wait a period of time after hitting the delete key before the character would actually be deleted. You could change your mind & cancel the deletion within that time & the deletion of the character would not be processed.

Considering the laptop was still able to connect, I doubt that would make a different. I already suggested this however, but I don't think he's tried it.

We decided to uninstall last night & try installing using the NCSoft Launcher. It may have been possible that his CoV disc had gone corrupt/damaged & we thought we might get different results this way.

That's another thing I've found myself running into. I've found myself making Excel documents of my Powers/Enhancements just to keep track of what I have on my other Build.

The point of the secondary suggestion is to provide protection if the first one gets implemented (it technically could be used as it's own suggestions as well). People playing from their homes most likely won't have this problem & won't have to lock their game anyways. I understand the issue of LAN Centers however as I used to work at one. A lot of brats liked to jump on other peoples accounts while they were taking a bathroom break. I would personally just lock my computer in this case (Windows key+L), but this is not an option when it comes to using LAN Center computers as many use timing software that will lock you out of normal Windows functions.

One suggestion I made for this game was the ability to save/export game options. Didn't expect that one to get supported, but it got supported maybe half a year later.

I was already aware of the chat channel restrictions, I didn't realize that mail was one of them however. I'm actually still learning the game, so a lot of it is still unknown to me.

I do what I can. There are a number of suggestions that have been used as well (such as the spam filter in GW; one off the top of my head), I just wish I had a better method of submitting such suggestions. Thanks for the interest in my suggestions for other games though.
