tip: creating alts with inherited interface

[aylwyne]

I use this trick myself, however, I found one little glitch that happens for me.

My main character (Oshido) is part of a guild and therefore has a guild tab in chat. I have my "User" chat tab set up to show guild chat messages, among others. If I leave my main character set this way and copy the config files over for my new character, my client fails to load if that character isn't in a guild because because it can't find the guild chat channel.

As soon as I recruited my alt into a guild, I was able to copy over the config files and it worked fine.

I haven't tested if I remove guild chat from my "User" chat settings if it will work. I'm guessing it will as that's about the only config I've done that directly involves the guild.
