Corrupted MP accounts

Me and my buddies just came home from a lan. One of us had a computer acting as server for the rest of us, and we played FL for two days. Then the computer acting as our server got seriously ****ed somehow, it just wouldn't be stable enough to do anything what so ever with it. It wasn't in the best possible shape before we started the server, but it got much worse all of a sudden. We managed to transfer the multiplayer folder from my games\freelancer\accts to another computer, and it worked for a while. Then the server started crashing ad infinitum when running flserver, everything else worked fine. We tried setting up another computer as server, but got the same results. The game just kept deteriorating and after a while we couldn't even log onto the server. Everything ran fine when we tried removing all accounts and server settings, but as before, the server was unusable when we tried our old accounts again.

We could start new accounts, but that's not anything we want to do since most of us are at level 22+ and with 300 000$+ :/

Has anyone experienced this? Is there another way of transfering MP Accts so that things don't get corrupted if that's what's happened?

NOt that this solves your problem, but you can hit level 22 in under an hour of game time.

Sure I could, but you couldn't explore all systems and get more then 2,5 mill like I've got in one hour. Our lowest ranking member has about lvl 22, not I.
And it's not like we played it constantly.

Nah, I prefer solving the account inconsistency rather then restarting.
