Ok this all started last night.

I got disconnected from Guildwars Server which isnt that big of a deal I thought. (little did i know) Although this time i got disconnected from my account aslo. Eh, its happened before not that big of a deal, so i tried reconnecting, and it said I had a bad username/password.

So i went to bed thinking it might get fixed in the morning, and it didnt. So I logged on with my friends account to check if it was a problem with my internet. I was able to get on and i read that EQemu is purging old accounts, well here is the problem i never made an account on the forums. Im not exactly sure how my friend made the account but it had something to do with EQ Live. So I thought I could outsmart it by making the same account name and password on your forums.

This worked I was able to connect to the server list, although when i tried to connect to any server on the list i got the 1017 error that i needed to run a patch. Now i know that the new patch for EQ Live doesnt work for EQemu yet so I decided to try logging in with my friends account again. He was able to establish connection with any server without getting the 1017 error. Now this is all from the same computer, so it cant be a problem with my connection or patch. I think my account is bugged. Someone please help. :(

1017 error is generally due to version or NAT issue. When was the last time you patched? What are the contents of your eqhost.txt file. Do you run a firewall, or proxy (read NAT, or router)?

You obviously missed the whole section where i said, i was able to log on with my friends account which apparently was not purged, even tho its not a forum account. Same computer, same internet, same day, it doesnt have anything to do with NAT or firewall issues. As for the patch, yet again i was able to log on with my friends account.
