    Wait at least half an hour or verify your game stats. Check your internet connection. Restart your computer. Do all sorts of things that you may think it should fix it. Then try again. It only helps by doing these. If none of those work, recap what the problem is and it will be given an answer once more. :)

    Also, if it says that you are currently logged in. Just do something to accommodate your time while you wait. Then log in again.

    Tick the Safe Log check box before entering your username and password. That will force other previous connections to cleanly close.

    Yes, if it says "already logged in", you need to kick it.

    Basically, when you're disconnected by some technical problem, it's like just ripping the cable out of the server without saying goodbye. Or leaving a room without saying anything. At this stage, the server doesn't even know you're no longer connected --- from its point of view, you're simply not sending it any new commands.

    Now, eventually the server should notice that you're not even responding to updates and other stuff, decide that you're no longer there, and clean up its side of things (i.e. log you out on the server).

    However, it seems Perfect World needs a long time to notice that you're gone. For these cases, the "safe log" option can be used --- the name is misleading since it has nothing to do with safety, it merely tells the server "If I'm still logged in somewhere, disconnect me there, please".
