I just made some fights passing throught Howling Gates. When I attacked Fire Starter (idle at this time) the following message appeared. I tried a second time and it appeared again.

thats the alt checker that does that... it might be a cross detection, with me being the one that once logged on one of the accounts to test something, and on the other, and then you two look as alts,

or it might be that you did it, i don't know

 

answer rophs question first, let me know if it happens just between you two and if its random or constant

Correct Tal and that´s why I was thinking of a bug. I never had this issue before ...

This is something that's happened in other games (people in different countries/states end up as alts).
