I\'m not sure if you\'ve been able to log on yet or not, but I thought I\'d jump in.
Usually one shouldn\'t see any number/7 for a very long time unless the servers are down. Then again, it\'s been a while since I\'ve been on there, so I don\'t know if anything\'s changed, but usually when the server booted my friends and me, that\'s what would happen if we tried to reconnect too early. Server outages, gotta love \'em -.-...
As for the player editor, it basically lets you make changes to your character by simply changing the settings around, save it under the same file, and it -technically- lets you make alternate characters, however the best way to do that would be the method the website itself describes (changing the name of Furcadia.ini to your character\'s name.ini, then restarting Furcadia).
Other than that, I\'m not sure what else to tell you. Hope you have better luck in the near future.
