monk world channel?

<DIV>IS anyone else having issues with this? or did I miss something in the update?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Sensie Hwarang </DIV>

<P>I have been locked out of the channel.  I seem to have "already joined crushbone.allmonks" however I cannot leave the channel, view the channel, or find a channel number assigned to it.  When I log on it is not listed.  I have also tried /leavechannel 1-50 and only had success leaving the channels that are on my list under chat options.  </P> <P>The only thing I can figure are that it is bugged or I have been blocked by whoever owns crushbone.allmonks.  Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.</P> <P> </P> <P>Shangortu - Kithicor</P> <P>  </P>

<P>Tried that but no luck, even tried /leaveall, still no luck.</P> <P>I am getting the same message, that I am in the channel when i try to join but I can not leave.</P> <P>Damnit I rtied kicking my computer that doesn't help, but it sured relieved soem frustration.</P> <P> </P> <P>Sensie Hwarang</P> <P> </P>

<DIV>I have tried all the fixes mentioned above, still no luck.  Anyone any more suggestions? </DIV>

<DIV> <DIV>Before you start responding with the typical ideas, rest assured, I have tried them.</DIV> <DIV>Somehow, I am currently unable to connect to the Crushbone.Allmonks channel.</DIV> <DIV>/1 is 60-69 channel</DIV> <DIV>/2 is 70 channel</DIV> <DIV>/3 (supposed to be monk channel)</DIV> <DIV>/1 and /2 work normally. </DIV> <DIV>/3 is currently invalid as a chat channel unless I add a new one (sometimes, I connect to reindps for raid dps posts), so then</DIV> <DIV>/3 is reindps</DIV> <DIV>if I type /join crushbone.allmonks , I am told 'You are already connected to crushbone.allmonks' , however never told a channel #.</DIV> <DIV>so I try to leave the channel. I started with /leavechannel 1, /leavechannel 2, /leavechannel 3 and that all disconnected me no problem. /leavechannel 4-10 is an invalid channel #.</DIV> <DIV>So I thought ok, will do by name. </DIV> <DIV>/leavechannel Crushbone.Allmonks ...... 'That is an invalid channel name.' </DIV> <DIV>OK... now I am lost... currently not connected to any channel, yet still have issues. I have talked to a couple monks, and I dont think they understand the issue. They have said the channel gets bugged. ok.. thats understandable. However, seems more than bugged for me.</DIV> <DIV>Even more strange, is that its only on my monk. My other characters, everything is fine. I connect/disconnect to the channel just peachy.... </DIV> <DIV>Contacted a GM, they do not see any issue.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>At a complete loss now...</DIV></DIV>

<DIV>No luck for me also :smileysad:</DIV>

[selch]

<DIV>Or you can just go to chat window, right click, select Chat Options, and type name of channel there and press join.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

[scalzo]

That dont work for me also :smileysad:

[selch]

<DIV>weird, I would delete *.ini files in EQ2 directory and retry if I were you, but ofcourse you would have to do your UI setup again.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

[scalzo]

I will let SoE fix this bug hehe dont wanna redo UI.

[Shankonia]

<P>Just noticed last night that my alts are still on Crushbone.Allmonks and able to communicate.</P> <P>I will try leaving channel on all 8 of them tonight and then rejoining on my monk.  This is the last thing I can think to do and if it works will let everyone know.</P>

[sensie]

<DIV>the channel stopped working for me and I couldn't leave or join. So I tried what I did when my showhood option was bugged... and it worked.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>try this.</DIV> <DIV>open the chat options for the window you have the monk chat in. check and uncheck the monk chan over and over rapidly. </DIV> <DIV>after a while it will say that you have left crushbone.allmonks</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>then type /join crushbone.allmonks again and you'll be set </DIV>

[Perfidiou]

<DIV>then I have no clue. all I know is that we miss you :smileysad:</DIV>

[Shankonia]

Anyone opposed to setting up a new allmonks channel?

[Perfidiou]

<DIV>it's the game that is "zonki", not the channel</DIV>

[Asheng]

it's not .ini files, its an issue with the channel server resetting and it bugging. You have to remember what number thechannel is, /leavechannel #, even if you can't type in it it will still leave, then you ned to relog, and then /join crushbone.allmonks. (log completly out, not to character select) This has always worked for me when this bug has occurred.<div></div>

[sensie]

<P>Thanks Ash but I have tried that, tried leaving every channel from1 to 30, never had more then 4 up tho.  Tried  /leaveall which is the command to leave all the channels you are in.  Still no dice.  Btw I did this prior to evening beggining this post several days ago.</P> <P> </P> <P>Sensie Hwarang</P>

[shaolen]

Tried all of the above and still cant get in either :smileymad:

[scalzo]

<P>/raise hand</P> <P>Votes for new channel :smileytongue:</P> <P>Make it crushbone.allmonk  leave the s out?</P> <P> </P><p>Message Edited by scalzo on <span class=date_text>04-19-2006</span> <span class=time_text>02:26 PM</span>

[Asheng]

be interesting to see if it is fixed after a server reset.I know I had to /leavechannel #4 /joinchannel crushbone.allmonks, a bunch to get it to work. but then some people like sensi were listed in chat still, even while in chat on an alt so who knows.Maybe if we switched channels some of the non-monks that idle in there keeping tabs on us might not notice =)<div></div>

[Shankonia]

<DIV>Anyone ever get back in?</DIV>

[shaolen]

I didn't get back in, finally just gave up.

[scalzo]

<DIV>Nope I have never been able to get back in. I am not deleting ini files again and resetting UI's. :smileymad: I guess I will wait to see if SoE can fix this because as I can see I am not bugged for alot of other people have this same problem. Or maybe one day the the chat channels name will be changed. </DIV>

[sensie]

<P>Its in the channel, so there is nothing we can do.  Those of us who are locked out are still showing as being in the channel, so  no matter what we do we cn't get back in.  Crossing my fingers that this will be addressed, as I have been locked of the monk channel for several weeks now.</P> <P> </P> <P>Sensie Hwarang</P>

[zabor]

only solution would be getting another name i guess, and that's not that easy <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

[sensie]

<P>Found this thread for those of us who maybe locked out.  Maybe there is hope for us.</P> <P><A href="http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=tech_support&message.id=157671" target=_blank>http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=tech_support&message.id=157671</A></P>
