Login Issues

[arabprlnce78]

Hello all,

Just came back to EQ after almost two decades. I've been playing on Blue for the past two weeks. Tonight I was trying to zone into Kaladim with no luck. The game would just freeze and crash. I tried every trick I could find on the site from using WineEQ 2, setting the launcher to run in compatibility mode, etc.

Just now I decided to try and make a new character to see if that would log me into the server. So I did just that and got in successfully. Logged out by camping and went to the account login screen again. Logged in and got to character select. Now both the new character I just created and my 2-week old enchanter are gone. I have eight create a new character slots. I'm at a loss with this. Any guidance?
