Runes of Magic US / AU

Dunno if this is a bug so didn't post in the Bug forum... tho mods can move it if it is a bug & I'm not a new player to post in Q&A forums lol coz it says its for new players only? xD

Well...Thought my game was bug-free for the most part haha. Until one day, I logged on, inside the General Chat box, after it shows Guild Annoucement msgs & all the addons have been loaded, blah blah...
"0 unread mail messages" appeared in Orange text in the box...


Is the game supposed to notify you how many mail messages u have when u log in, or was this just a 1time weird clientread error that caused it to show up?

This only showed up once for me, never showed up again & I've been playing for a while, have the 2.0 & 4.0 patched up clients & IDK anyone who knows what I'm talking about lol. If this is an intended feature, somehow it rarely loads that info when we log in.

I don't have a mail addon at all. All I have is pbinfo, InstanceMapFix, ItemPreview, GuildChatColor, & Adv Auction House.

I just re-read your starter post and realized you said that the error happened once, and only once. That would indicate it's a random bug that's not likely to be reproduceable. However, if it's still showing up, move your Interface\Addons folder out of the main RoM game folder and then restart the client in "vanilla" mode.

To the best of my knowledge the game doesn't have a built-in feature to inform you about mail, and never has had such a feature.

Yeah, it showed up once when I was using the client I've had since 2.0 that's been patched up til now. My 4.0 client patched up til now has never showed that msg at login.

It's likely that someone was using a text spoofer and made the message appear as if though it were coming from the system when it was not. It'd come from the person in the line of text above it.

-keep it toasty

That's why I was asking about it, coz it seems like a system msg being all orange & all, but the person "in the line of text above it" is actually just the Custom Channel input of saying who else logged into the custom channel the same time I did.

When I log onto the game, my addons load & automatically am entered into the custom channels I was in during the previous time I was logged onto that character & guild announcements are loaded...if any of those are slow in loading, then they kinda go out of order, but basically all that info is at the top of my General Chat Tab box when I scroll up before anything else shows up in my chat box. So I have no idea where a mailbox notification would fit in all that O_o since I'm not running any mail addons now or ever in the past.
