My social window keeps popping open while census is running a scan

I have the same issue. It seems like it happens randomly, but it happens quite often.

Mine is every time the census completes

SpamSentry? It totally jacks Census scans. Actually it's the AceWhoLib. I'm looking into ways to negate it...

SpamSentry is just about outdated with the patch.

Have a look <a href="http://www.wowwiki.com/User:Doc_Lithius ... _the_Patch"> here</a>.

It's not just SpamSentry. SpamSentry uses ACE WhoLib which other AddOns use as well. Any AddOn that currently uses ACE WhoLib will cause undesirable results with Census.

I contacted the author and the only help he would provide was to ask me to use WhoLib in Census. Some great play nice support there...

Anyway, I'm going to look into working around the issue, detecting if WhoLib is loaded and figuring out a way to subvert the problems it is causing.

i think a new ace lib fixed my problem, i installed new bongos and some other addons that use ace, and the problem is gone

It seems, that the social window pops up, if a guild member comes online.

Edit: OK, it is not only, when guild members come online. I have guildads installed, which is an Ace-Addon. It is as Rollie says...

Hello,

I'm the author of WhoLib.

And I had offered Rollie that I'll try to implenet that the WhoLib will be used if available, or even at all - to include it into the package.

But after the post from Rollie I maybe withdraw that offer.

Yours, ALeX.

The fact of the matter is, Alex, that you are hijacking core game functionality without providing any way to recover said core functionality. Anyone who relies on said functionality to work the way Blizzard intended is basically at an impasse if your mod is loaded.

To me, this is just completely unacceptable. Completely rewriting the way core Blizzard functions work without any method to return to stock Blizzard functionality should be expressly forbidden.

I have no desire to implement or include ACE WhoLib into Census+. I just want core Blizzard functionality to work as expected and not have to make hacks to work around your impassible changes to said core functionality.

If you can't tell, I'm a bit perturbed. I've already spent way more time trying to recover core Blizzard functionality than I should have to.

BTW, the function I am referring to here is the core Blizzard function 'SendWho'

Maybe contact blizzard about it?...

Alex -

I appreciate your trying to help. Unfortunately this still leaves broken functionality. I will see if I can get this to work with your suggestions.
