Trouble with Renaming

Postby Morgane » Wed Jun 23, 2010 2:07 pm

Often, when I try to rename someone and I click on the "Change" button, I am taken to the player page and receive the following message:

ERROR: You are not allowed to view events of other players!

and then I have to go back and try to rename the person again, because the change doesn't take. :( Is there a fix for this?

That happens to me a lot. Not only when I'm trying to change names, but even if I'm just typing something that my character says or emotes. The posts always show though, but the name-changes do not.

That happens to me, but I don't get that message. I just get a page of mySQL errors. If you disable the automated event refresher, it will stop.

Hit the change button on your character page. There should be an option to disable javascript.
