Link dead while logging in

Post by Liosie » Sun Mar 18, 2018 7:49 am

My computer decided to freeze right as i was logging in. I close my client window and when I went to log in again I got a warning saying that there was another person logging in using my ip address. How can I fix this?

Just wait a few mins and try again.

If you try to log in too many times too quickly, you may automatically (out of our control) receive a ban at the Firewall level and no longer be able to play the mud.

If this happens, mail Staff who will then need to contact Flash as he's the only one who can reset Firewall bans.

This is why in such instances you should wait a few minutes before logging in again and ensure whatever mud client you are using doesn't try to autoconnect you. E.g., sometimes during a mud crash or boot, players' clients kept trying to autoconnect them resulting in them being banned.

(I realize your case was a few hours ago -- I posted this to provide extra information and inform anyone else who may read this who doesn't already know.)
