Aye, I had the exact same problem last night, and I'm
sure it's due to lag. Much like when running across
the karanas, and I suddenly see "You slow down". I
look, my butons are all grayed, but I have no Selo's
icon. Then I notice my lag... After I log back on,
(got lagged out), I'm fine. It seems there needs to be
uninterrupted client-communication for songs to work.
Too much PL and you freeze. No songs playing, stopping
or starting.

Subject: Song probs?
i'm glad to see it's not just me having this exact
problem...
yesterday alone i encountered two separate
occasions when i could
not
sing a song due to another song being what appeared to
be "locked" into
verse. now the peculiar thing was that one of these
times, i was in
east
commons grouped with another bard, and some others. i
decided since i
was a
little higher than he was, to sing my hymn song
instead to heal up the
party
a wee faster. his song ended. i attempted to start my
hymn. did not
take...
at all. i tried maybe 20 times. grrr... this wasn't
the first time it
had
happened to me, so i didn't panic. i simply zoned. it
seems to fix the
problem, but isn't necessarily something you want to
do while either
fighting some mobs, or trying to heal your party while
preparing for
the
next battle.
even while i was running towards the zone, i asked
the other bard to
sto
singing his song again. he did once more. i was maybe
half the zone
away
from him and still kept getting the message "your
wounds begin to
heal."
hmmm... i left clicked on the icon to try removing the
effects that
way.
also no luck. well since i was at the zone, i went
ahead and did the
sure
fix.
is this happening with any other bards? what could
be the problem?
maybe
an incidental bug included with the last patch. or is
what Sylly was
discussing having to do with lag and spikes? i didn't
experience any of
that
if i recall correctly.
