After seeing the changes done to the game, I decided to reactivate my account. I was on Rabanastre before the merger with Durandal and I may have been logged out in a market ward. Reinstalled, deleted folders, registry cleaner, port forwarding and everything else I found on support posts and recommendations from customer support.

I created another character and can log in with that one on my computer, I cannot log in with the original from a friends computer either. So at this point its obviously a game side issue. I had a ticket created and a dev ticket (or at least a confirmation number for one, I think). It has only been 2 weeks and based on a similar issue others have posted I'm hoping it won't take months to fix, or forced to wait for 2.0 and miss out on a lot of in game content.

After today's call I was given a few extra bits of information, "character corruption" and "ticket is in progress" was mentioned by a CS manager. Posting Lusavari's threads also, maybe get some cross-thread love or at least a fix for both our tickets.
