I have installed XML spawner and Siege to my server ive been testing them out and have found that after im done blowing things up like the boats i use my spellbook to recall to a location and it crashs my client.
This just started to happen sence I installed seige, now the funny thing is its only effecting Mark and Recall,again this only started after Seige any ideas to correct?

often client crash problems have to do with long strings being sent and displayed. If you have the journal open and display something that has a long name, perhaps like a destination or location for your recall/mark, that might be it.

Nope nothing like that,one thing i have noticed i would remove the icons from the spell book for easy access, and after im done testing there gone,thats when i open the spell book and click on the mark/recall and boom crash.
Now if i create a new player on the account. i have just created another Admin on the account now, just used the spell book on the new player no problem what so ever no crash, BUT if i switch back to the oringal CRASH

you could try removing the siege system, but I doubt that it has anything to do with the problem.
Other ways to crash the client are by sending invalid colors or other illegal packets.
What other custom systems do you have?

yep, long names are a common cause of those kinds of client crashes. Usually player names, sometimes item names. Generally related to having the journal open.
