Shattered Kingdoms

I am certain this is some type of bug, all day long I have been locating items on Iliphalia but I have not once seen her online. When one voids out does that cause one to be able to locate anything said character has? It is now 7pm and I have been locating sacred gear and symbols of Meissa on Iliphalia and to my knowledge she hasn't logged on today?

I have also seen this happen back when Syric use to play. Saw him log off in the same room as me yet was still able to locate items on him. So I don't think it is entirely related to voiding out, was just told that it what is causing the Iliphalia issues of late.

This was sort of fixed some years ago. It happens when you quit or disconnect and reconnect but not advance the motd screen. Especially common if you use a client that auto connects after being disconnected. It makes your character locateble, even when not directly in the game. But does not count for real online time. Though it used to and mortals and immortals alike used it to earn enough online time to avoid loss of loot, flags, and demotions using this bug.

I tried to turn off auto-connect. Grumble.

No, I have not been logged in today, nor did I void out on my last log-in. Very strange. :/ The gloves are just that damn radiant that they transcend my existence IC.

Tragonis has it right. Iliphalia was in a waiting for password state. But there's no real bug here. Nothing bad happens as a result of this.

Ha! Nothing bad happens unless I'm secretly hoarding (lol) and people discover my phat lootz while I'm offline.
