Feedback:User/Khalidaat/Character selection - custom option (or at least fix random shuffling)

At the moment the order of the characters in the character selection screen is sometimes randomly shuffled. This happens most often when you create a new character, but recently happened to me for no reason at all. It is incredibly frustrating to take great care in creating the characters in the order I want and them having them shuffled into a random order.

GW allows custom armor, weapons, appearance, name, costumes, items...it tries to be a complete fantasy world where the user can order things exactly as he or she wants. It is ridiculous that I cannot control how my characters are ordered on the very first screen I see upon login, and that they can be randomly shuffled without any input from me.

Many people have suggested allowing the order of characters to be customizable, and I completely agree with that idea, but if nothing else, please, please, please fix the bug that randomly shuffles my characters. It irritates me enough that I have restarted characters to put them in a more agreeable order, and after my account was completely re-shuffled again last night I think I might just stop playing because I can't stand the order they are in now and I don't want to restart them all...again.

This should be a relatively easy fix compared to the vast changes made for the 6th anniversary, and the idea has been around for years. I don't understand why the idea of customizing the order of character selection has not been implemented yet; it should be a no-brainer in this sort of personalized fantasy game that the very first interaction we have is customizable to put our characters in the order we want.

Thanks for listening and please at least fix the bug!
