Single character won't log in to game

[User]

Yeah this is a very old account i forgot to mention, nearly as old as the server. I'm not going to re-install yet since I really don't think it will help. I remember this same issue coming up 2 years ago where i couldn't log characters in at random, but it may have been a separate issue.

And yeah, I read a lot of threads, Lyra, and i thought i picked up hints that you had created a new account and started over. I'm not doing that, not even an option lol.

Also just remembered i had another install of EQ on a separate hard drive attached to this computer. That install won't let me log on either, just tried it. Exact same result.

Current install is on a SSD and i'm not going to lower it's lifespan by repeatedly reinstalling EQ every time i get a character locked out.

Also, I use satellite internet so my ping is minimum 800ms and average about 1500ms. If I can ever get logged into the world then i can play forever as long as i don't zone or log out. The high ping is a very minor annoyance in a PvE game, easily still playable ...even if it turns my FD into a 3-5 second cast time.
