"Your character is still being saved."

[Eff]

I have come across a MAJOR bug which has my really irritated. I am unable to load up my character because I receive the message "Your character is still being saved.". This issue has been going on for over 24 hours and I have restarted my computer in that time period yes. I have contacted in game support but got nowhere through 2 tickets and am very unhappy.

2 Tickets as follow:

1.
ME: I can't load into one of my characters on the Kyber server. I receive the message "Your character is still being saved." I have tried restarting and relogging several times but nothing. My character on this server is named Effant

THEM: Greetings Mrgosh, you should now be able to log into that character. If there is anything else we can assist you with please let us know.

No this did not fix anything.

2.
ME: I am unable to load into one of my characters on Kyber, Effant. I submitted a ticket earlier and it was answered and closed saying the issue was fixed but it is not yet fixed. I have tried loading the character with the same "Your character is still being saved.". Thank you for your help

THEM: Your report indicates a known issue. This issue is being investigated by our development team.

The last time I saw that bug was back in 2006. Back then it was caused by hitting alt+F4 instead of logging out when stuck on a loading screen. The recommended method was to hit enter, and type /logout, which would log you out even though you couldn't see the chat box.

I can't remember what they did to fix the characters, but it had to be done on their end.

Alternative fix, even if u have not created another character on Khyber, roll one up, log into it, log out then try loggging onto ur original character that was stuck still being saved....this has worked for me in the past.


If u already have another character made u don't need to roll a new one just log into one that is not stuck being saved then log out and switch to the one that is.

Thanks vVAnjilaVv but yes I have several characters on Kyber and this unfortunately doesn't solve it. I did more research and as Cedwin states it was a huge problem in 2006 but was fixed...*ahem*....

One day as Eff was logging out, Effant, as all player controlled characters do, was standing patiently, waiting to vanish from the world. Then suddenly, just as Eff was closing down his game from the shadows emerged the turbine beholder! Spewing bug ridden beams of poor collision detection from it's many eyes it quickly incapacitated the unwary character and dragged him in to the shadows, leaving behind only a note reading:

Dear In game support technicians.

I, the turbine beholder, have again kidnapped a player character in the hopes of destroying my own market base and alienating any new subscribers (I'm chaotically evil aligned, it's what I do.). If you want him back you will have to embark on a long and arduous quest through the mountains and valleys of Eberron in search of 3 rare items. Only by finding and combining these items can you hope to defeat me. Items you seek are:

Broccoli
Ham
The Favor Chicken

I will show myself again when you bring those items together.

Sincerely yours: the Turbine Beholder.

Upon reading this the In game support staff was angered, but not surprised. They quickly formed a team, handpicking the best among them to take this quest and return Eff's character to him. However, as the best of the staff is currently on this quest the only ones left to do actual in game support are: "Gary the vague" and "Thomas the unhelpful". Naturally it was Thomas and Gary would responded to your initial inquiries. And as for the message: "Your character is still being saved", it is meant to be taken literally, as they are currently on an epic journey to save your character from the clutches of evil.
