Guild Roster/Invalid Entity Name

bottbollius

i frequently come across "invalid entity name" when inspecting the members of my guild and i assume the character has been deleted but occassionaly it seems unlikely that someone would delete a fully decked lvl 70. does anyone know for certain what it means ie, character deleted or the games was erased, just curious.

It seems to mean that their privacy settings are set to not show them online.

in fact I believe now that it means their gold membership has expired and without it you cannot play the game. the recent promotion try "10 days of gold free" explains why i suddenly had 30+ low lvl guildies go invalid, when the 10 days was up. guess i should give them a grace period before i kick to see if they get gold back.

My nephew has an account without gold, but plays Neverwinter when he comes over here on my Xbox using his account. He is a member of the guild and does not have the invalid flag when I inspect. So, that's not it.

Past speculation has usually focused on privacy settings or a period of more than 2 weeks without logging on to the character. Neither has ever been confirmed.

in fact if you have a gold membership and allow game sharing anyone using your console can play the game. one of my sword guild leaders recently lost his gold status and both he and his girlfriend went immediately to invalid character name.

I've seen members of my guild have 'invalid character' on some of their characters but not others. It's usually on ones they haven't logged on to for a while.

I am pretty sure this goes along with the gear being visible or not when inspecting from roster on xbox, the character goes invalid after about 7 days of not logging on.

If they haven't logged a single time in for an extended period of time, it shows that way. It's character based, not gamertag. I've heard it's 2, or 3, or 4 weeks. I'm not sure the duration, but that's what it is.

I believe it's 30 days.
