Random Teleportation
« on: February 10, 2007, 01:41:38 am »
Okay, I was just casually minding my own business in-game - chatting with Paro and crafting by Harnquist - when suddenly, without warning, I was teleported to the cave in the Bronze Doors area!

Luckily I managed to grab the molten steel out of the furnace before I was whisked away, but not-so-lucky was the fact that I forgot to apply the BD fix to the new updated client, so I immediately crashed out.

After applying the fix, I logged back in, and yes - I'm still in Bronze Doors.


I'm just wondering what the heck I did. I'd never heard of that happening before, but I suppose I haven't been around that long either...



Edit: Changed the title... for clarity's sake...

I suggest the statue of Laanx gets turned into a statue of Parallo <3. An NPC could never replace the huge hole he left in my heart when he died  :'(

Yeah, which also explains why my last words were "holy crap!" :P

Yeah, that did puzzle me. I thought maybe it was a 'holy-crap-I-thought-I-was-sending-tells-to-someone-completely-different' sort of holy crap.

Anyone else encountering vortexing? It happened to me twice from Harnquist's to Arena. Both times while I was in the middle of a trade with another player.

Is it completely random or is there some sort of trigger?

It happened twice to Alexanddra. Both times she was typing and upon pressing enter she was transported first to the sewer then to the arena.

Maybe the server takes the text for the /teleport command?

Actually, now that you mention it, I just finished typing "Hey, have you seen the new area yet?" when I suddenly teleported away.

For a minute I thought some GM or even you heard me and decided to send me there for some odd reason...

I think in both instances in my case, the teleport happened right after the trade was accepted.

There was some chatting going on so I think we may be on to something here. We chatting using tells so maybe that had something to do with it?

Forgot to check the log files ... duh

So what does have to do with it?

Is it just completely random, or does the server specifically hate us? :P
