I don't know what the deal with this is, but is getting very old, very fast.


My sign seems to get borked once a week, every week. What happens is I get a double dispaly over it. The name I have on the sign becomes 2 names. If you pass your mouse over it, it looks like it is blinking. Now this is not a major problem, unless I want to change my sign, as in to advertise something else. What happens is my old message stays, and my new ones is placed. The blinking becomes some sort of mish mashed garble.


If I change my sign type to house address, the blinking goes away, because the new sign is placed on the side of the house.


What I think is happening is when a new message is created on a sign, the old sign is deleted and replaced with a new one(same sign if you did not change style), with the new message. When the sign gets borked, the old sign is not deleted.


And heres the kicker, this happens to me every Sunday. Is the server reset every day except that one?


Also, this problem is on a medium Corellian house.. if that matters.


This happen to anyone else?

I've seen it happen on Generic PA Halls and small generics. Haven't noticed any consistency, and it just seems to go away after two or three days.

I have recently seen people doing this intentionally somehow creating a shadow like effect. I have no clue how they are doing it but I suspect it is connected to the way it is accidentally happening to you.
