Details:
Multiple chars on /who list from same account

1. Log in any char in your account
2. /camp out to char select screen
3. Create a new char and log in

For a short period of time, both chars will show up in the /who list and you can /t to both of them. After a short while, the camped char will disappear from the /who list.

I'm not sure if this is by design, but when you /camp, your char will show as online to others indefinitely while you are at the character select screen.

This is because of the annoying way we keep a World connection open from Char Select, which is unnecessary. If we cannot solve it, we need a flag in the connection that says "I'm at login dummy, don't count me in the world"

This is due to the WorldCharacter object for a given player not being destroyed during /camp or Force Close. It appears, to the server, that the other character is still logged in, and this shows up on /who. This will be resolved when the WorldCharacter object destruction issue is resolved.

Cool. See my directive on the CTD Bug thread, we need to start destroying the account at Login. I don't want to mess with this anymore. It's the common denominator on many an issue, including perception. Let chat.

Nope does not happen when i logged out my character disappeared from the who list like it is suppose to. I also created a character and logged him in and only he showed on the /who list.

I tried it again, but this time the new character is stuck at "waiting on data..."
