Character doesn't show up when "/who XXX"
 
Hello, I'm having an issue with my character not coming up when searched for. I show up in the /who list for the zone, but if you do a "/who Telepo" or "/who all Telepo" its seems that I don't exist. Please help!

A name change might be the only way around this - might want to put in a forum petition.

This happens to me all the time. There isn't a fix for this besides just logging.

This has gone so far as to extend for others names as well. Where I will have to search for a full name versus a few letters.

Ex: /who all tad results in nothing yet /who all Tadhg will give me who I am looking for. It can be very frustrating sometimes but I just log out and log back in and all is good.

Yeah, there are some words that the /who command doesn't agree with, for whatever reason. Probably just bad coding - certain strings might be reserved for other commands and it inadvertently affects /who for some reason. One of the weirdest command-related bugs I've encountered is from accidentally entering "/tell " - sends a blank tell to dozens of people with no rhyme or reason behind it, people in other zones, etc. Not sure if that's been fixed yet.

Interesting. Generally if I'm lazy and someone's name is easy to spell I'll just /t name enter and because I have boxes it will pop up or just say offline.
