    I deactivated my accounts yesterday. I may reactivate them for the umpteenth time later this year when the weather changes. My problem this time? One of my characters will not assign agents to overseer quests.

    When I petitiioned the issue, I was told to delete game files to "fix it," but I don't want to delete my UI files. I deleted all non-ui files that they recommended and it did nothing to fix the problem. I spent significant time creating my game experience and I have no wish to do it all over again. Why are there client side files involved with the overseer at all?

    I love the game, but I can't stand the bugs and glitches that require the user to fix rather than the people who took my money every month for many years..I've seen some real positive changes and I hope they continue, but I am out for now.

    Step 0. Is the character level 85 or above?

    Step 1. Rename the UI file for the character with the problem, I put OLD in front so it ends up as OLD_playername.servername.ui

    Step 2. Load up the game, enter world as problem character, copy ui from the OLD_playername.servername.ui file checking all of the the additional boxes.

    Step 3. You now have a fresh non-corrupt UI file for the character without losing your screen arrangement, hotkeys etc.

    Step 4. Check if this now allows you to use Overseer correctly.

    You sound like a sad teenage girl who stomps out of the room making a scene whenever things do not go your way.

    If you look hard enough for an excuse, one will usually be found.

    Given how minor this issue is, and given that you consciously decided not to follow the provided directions to fix it, I am absolutely not surprised you've quit umpteen times before!

    Because there is nothing cooler than telling a bunch of people you don't know or even care about that you are quitting... :p

    I would like to announce that I am quitting due to the /pizza command being discontinued. I haven't tried overseer yet, but I am also quitting because of that.

    Overseer is great! Got a couple ornaments and can fill up your exp if you die on raids.

    I remember a time in the old days when we didn't have it. I do not want to go back to that.

    Why in the name of all that is Norrathian would you not make copies of those files before deleting them???
