Name change creates 2nd character? Can't select new char.

[Kay of Sauvage]

I submitted a name change for my only character. I then had 2 characters, a new peasant with my old name, and a character with my new name and all the xp and stuff I had. Is it normal for a name change to result in 2 characters?

There's a problem, and that is that I can't access my good character's stats and inventory. The page defaults to the crappy peasant, and every time I select the new character in the drop down box, it just reloads the page for the crappy peasant. I'm afraid to delete the old peasant for fear that it might be bugged somehow and will end up deleting my good character in the process.

Also, I had my character selected as the main (for Strategus). I expected that preference would be transferred with the name change. But with having 2 characters now, I wonder who is the main.

For the new name change I didn't create a new character, but I had to create a new one with the new name. That's normal, I believe the constant peasant page issue is another cookies issue. So delete your cookies and try again, hope that helps.

Ah, deleting the cookies worked.

As for the 2nd character, I suppose I have that 2nd character because I was in-game playing when I changed the name. I'll delete it. *Crosses fingers*
