Forum Avatars

Hi all,

There are currently issues that prevent some players’ forum avatars from updating properly or regularly and thereby preventing those players from posting on their avatar of choice. Typically this can be expressed by a new avatar not being available, or older avatars not showing the correct level or guild. This can even affect the name or realm of your character if they have been changed recently. While the appropriate departments are working toward a resolution to ensure that the forum database is updated more regularly and consistently, there is a potential workaround to try in the meantime; however, there is unfortunately no guarantee that the process shall have any noticeable effect.

If you click the “Select Character” link in the upper-right of the page and select a different character from the one experiencing the issue, post something on that, then reselect your main character, it may force the database to refresh its information for the affected character. There may also be multiple copies of your characters on the “Select Character” page, in which case you should be able to simply select the one with the most up-to-date information. We appreciate your continued patience.

Character information on the forums should now be updating properly. If your character's guild or level are out of date, please log into a different character on the account, then return to the previously outdated character.

This thread seems to have served its purpose and is now locked.
