Faction change bugged, stuck @ flagged rename

I believe this is a known issue when you do both a transfer and a faction change. If you don't log into the character after one step but before the other it will incorrectly flag your character. Try just typing the same name in again...if that doesn't work I believe a GM can fix it.

Try logging in once more, Ty. :)

Both of you should be good, this looks to have already been addressed.

If you find you still cannot login, please do let us know.

Just for the record, this normally happens when multiple transactions are requested and the character is not logged into - in between requests.

Something to keep in mind if you ever wish to have multiple services on a character in the future. Just a peculiarity in the system that pops up from time to time - but logging into the character after each step can sidestep this.

Thanks!

Q u o t e:
I have the same problem here. I did both transfer server/faction change, now I can't login because my character is flagged for rename.


I'm making a presumption this is on your Druid? Try that character now.

Yes, on my druid, but I can't login yet.


You aren't where you can login - or it's not working? You should be able to access that character now.

Appears the same message: "Your name has been flagged for rename."


Are you logging in fresh - or where you already logged in and just trying to switch characters? This looks like it should be accessible from my end now.

Just transferred my rogue over and then did an immediate faction change. I renamed on the faction change screen, now when I try to login I get the notorious "Your name has been flagged for a rename".
