Move the character to a dif spot?
Network
After the login screen where you pick your character I had my pve character on the far left, I deleted and remade some pvp character and for some reasen it randomly moved 1 spot to the left after I re logged in, how do I move my characters postion after the login screen at character selection to a dif spot?

I think they are arranged aphabetically. At least they are on my two accounts.

Arranged alphabetically, not much you can do about it.

Yep definitely alphabetical.
Test it...create characters with different names and the delete them. You will see.

i'm just wondering does it really matter where they are one at the front one at the end or all at the front or all at the end with open spaces i don't think it really matters where they are just as long as there still there and not somehow dissapear

Yea, the order your characters appear on the login screen is pretty trivial. The only thing I can think of that would get annoying is if they moved around randomly all the time with no explaination. Otherwise, Who cares?

Uh, it's not alphabetical. Several of my chars are in strange order.
It goes in this order:
The order seems to be random here.

There may be a way to mess the alphabetical order up, but I sure haven't seen it. My accounts' characters are definitely in order.
1) R. F.
2) R. K.
3) R. L.
4) R. N.
As a guess, perhaps it just alpabetizes them by last name? (It does for me at least, since my characters have the same first name
)

Actually...despite mine being in alphabetical order by first name, I also noticed that they are in reverse alphabetical order by profession.
That means (left to right on screen): Warrior, Ranger, Necro, Monk.

I think the dev's intention was that the order should be alphabetical but there could be a glitch that interferes with the sorting or the sorting could be taking place only when a certain action is performed (such as creating and/or deleting a char)
I noticed the weirdness when one day, my second slot became empty. (Previously, only the last slot was empty, as one would expect). I checked the names of my current three chars and they were alphabetically sorted. Also, if I hadn't deleted the char that once occupied the empty slot (created temporarily, to check out something in pre-searing), she would have fit nicely into the second slot in the correct alpha-order.
Being the nerd that I am, and wanting to eliminate the empty slot, I created a new char called "Zzzz Something" but he ended up in the second slot. Logged in with him, played some, logged out, still the same disorder. Deleted him and my second slot was still empty - the remaining girls did not shift to fill in the gap.
I recently made another new char and she is sitting right where she should be, alphabetically speaking.
So, the order is alphabetical but disorder happens. Luckily it is not something to hit the fan.

And the creation order is 2, 1, 3, 4
When you create a new character, don't you have to click on the empty character slot to do so? It's been a long time since I made my characters, so I wouldn't know if they're in the order I ended up clicking or not.

Character 1 (selected slot 1 at creation): N
Character 2 (selected slot 2 at creation): K
After I logged out and back on, K went before N. Deleting "K" left an empty portrait/slot there (and "N" didn't shift back), so from then on the "order" of characters was screwed up.
Everything is fine on my normal account because I inadvertently created all four characters in alphabetical order :|

Could this be because this system only keeps your characters in alphabetical order for the first four you create? Then if one is deleted, the next character created is simply put in the empty space regardless of name. Though i haven't tested it (4 lv. 20).
Mine go T,K,R,S. I did not create an FPE character, but have created and deleted many characters in the past.

The only way to change it is to delete all your characters and remake them. That way they might be in a different order.
