Jamba+ISBoxer - funky behavior with follow

I recently bit the bullet and got 2 more accounts to do some quick RAF boosting with, and I'm having some issues getting everyone to follow the active character when I switch from one screen to another. Here is what seems to happen:

I have 5 characters, A, B, C, D and E.

If I click on B, everyone seems to want to follow A. Except for A, who seems to want to follow E.
If I then click on C, everyone wants to follow B (including C), and B doesn't want to follow anyone.
If I then click on D, everyone wants to follow C, and C doesn't want to follow anyone. D does not follow anyone.
If I then click on E, everyone wants to follow D, and D doesn't want to follow anyone. E does not follow anyone.

So what's the deal? Anyone have an idea what's happening?

Edit: I kind of have it fixed - I just turned off auto-follow when switching windows and now have it set to manually follow.

Though I am finding now that it doesn't want to let me automatically accept quests on all characters when I do it on one. Something very odd is happening!

It sounds like your team member names in the IsBoxer slots do not match what you are logging in as for those slots. Therefore Jamba is following the correct named character except not in the right slot.

If you order your team from top to bottom account 1, 2, 3 etc. Perhaps this team setup got a little jumbled. Just double check the correct order and login.

If they follow the wrong guy, they're in the wrong slots. When you Export to Inner Space if it complains about account names, that's the issue -- you can solve it by just closing out WoW, then Export (if done while the game is up, WoW will just overwrite it).

Auto accepting quests is something with your Jamba config though. I don't use that Jamba feature so I'm not sure what to tell you about that ;)

fyi, I just started a druid team, and I think it stopped after lvl 5. Wow changed their starting areas to just auto accept quests. It was kinda funky at first, but after lvl 5, accepting, completing, selecting rewards finally started to work properly.

Yeah, they added some feature to WoW where up to level 5, every quest is auto-accepted and the quest window stays up with the accept button lit. Confused the hell out of me for a couple hours while I tried to figure out what addon was auto-accepting them. Then it turns out you can't disable that feature. :(

Thanks, all - I remade the team and put everyone in the correct order and that issue went away.

With Jamba I just changed all the settings to "automatically accept any quest from any source" rather than requiring that I click, though it gives me less control than I wanted - it turns out much quicker, so that's a good thing too.

Thanks again for the insight!

This "feature" seems to be enabled for all quests in the very first area in the starting zone of each race. Got this very same issue with my level 80 team when I went to Shadowglen to do all quests for the reputation. That confused me a lot as well.
