Was stuck in an infinite load screen last night so I quit from console. Got locked to that shard so I did a character repair from AC and logged off. This was 9 hours ago at this point and I am still locked to a shard that I never logged into successfully in the first place. Why is this even a thing? Shouldn't it have logged me out of that shard by now? Also why are there no tags for this? Shard name is meticulous_origin Edit: I found a workaround that has worked more than once now 1. Fill out a character repair, but don't submit yet 2. Attempt to load into the PU and submit the repair while in the forever load screen. You should get a message saying something like "the admin has kicked you from the server". The game will close. Just relaunch and you should be able to join
