Game crash when clicking on the name of the GM

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Everytime i and the rest of the guild click on the guildmaster name our 
game crashed.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

A frozen screen and manually need to stop WoW.

What version of the product are you using? What other addons do you have 
installed and what versions?

We are using the epgp-4.0-beta-0 version 

Too many addons to list here.

Paste the text surrounded by -EPGP- in Guild Information here:

-EPGP-
@DECAY_P:10
@MIN_EP:1
@BASE_GP:1
-EPGP-

Please provide any additional information below.

We encounter this problem while testing the mod.

Can you try this without EPGP and see if it fixes the problem?

That's just it, the game crashes without *any* addons enabled.

I think EPGP may be doing something to the officer/player notes that causes the
client to lock up in a tight loop.

Hello, 
My guild had a issue very much like this.  The data stored in the player notes 
was a 
recurring number, and crashed the wow client when that player was selected from 
the 
guild list. This ocurred with no addons installed.
Change the value for the affected player and it should go away.

Somehow it doesn't happen anymore. Don't know how we solved it tbh.

Easy way to reproduce this is to start with a clean slate and then give someone 
1 ep,
another person 2 ep, and a third person 3 ep. Looking at the officer note for 
each
person you will notice that the 1 ep person has "0|0|0", the 2 ep person will 
have
"0de |0|0", and the 3 ep person will lock up the game on you often forcing you 
to
reset your computer. If you write these out to save variables you get the 
correct
strings, it is only when you try to display them in game that this happens. 

Since the | character is also used for various escape sequences i would guess 
that
this is accidentally triggering some that are not documented. To test this i 
edited
my local copy of Cache.lua to use commas instead of pipes and it caused no 
crashing
on the above example.

This was all while using epgp-4.0-beta-1.

I really can't reproduce this. Closing as invalid.
