Ever since May 14, 2024 reset I cannot whisper cross realm.
“/w name-server” returns “No player named “name” is currently playing.” I am trying to whisper players from another server, but the whisper is sent to the player on my server with the same name.
“/inv name-server” still works fine. The invite is sent to the correct player, but I cannot whisper that player.
All addons are disabled. If I invite the player to a group the players can then whisper each other successfully until log off. E.G. if one player logs off then logs back in they cannot send a cross-realm whisper, but can still receive cross-realm whisper from the player they were just messaging.
Before May 14 there was an intermittent issue where the first cross realm whisper wouldn’t go to the correct player. But a second attempt would go through correctly. Now it seems cross-realm whispers never go through unless in a group together or one of the players invites the other to group then whispers them.
If the players are in a community together they seem to be able to directly whisper cross-realm with no issues provided the message is typed out. If the message is done through a macro, then it doesn’t work.
