UI Error - Stuck in Limbo

One of my characters is stuck in limbo.

I was zoning from Greenshade to Malabal Tor (you run towards the gate and it loads you into the next area) and got the extra long loading page. I relogged but when I came back into game, I was stuck against the gate (loading page said I'm on Greenshade side but my map said Malabal Tor) and could not move nor type at all (would've done the ol' /stuck trick if I could). A UI Error message (typed it out below). The 'Dismiss Error' and the 'x' close out buttons do not work.

I don't have any addons, I've restarted my game, logged onto another character just fine. I can type keys like 'm' and the map comes up fine but I can't navigate within the map by scrolling or tabbing - so can't even hearth. I can press 'esc' but can't navigate within the menu. I tried to get a friend to add me so I could maybe 'travel to player' but couldn't even tab through friends. Nor can I see any chat going on.

After about 5 minutes sitting at this message, the screen goes black but you can still hear music and see the mouse cursor. After another 5 minutes, I get booted from the game 'error, an unknown error has occurred'.

I put in a ticket but just reaching out to folks here to see if anyone has experienced this? if there is an F-key or something that will perform the same function as /stuck? am I being a dumb dumb girl and missing something?

I'm Veteran lvl 5 if it makes any difference /shrugs.

Message is as follows:

UI Error

ESOUI/Ingame/ChatSystem/ChatSystem.lua:2010: attempt to index a nil value
stack traceback:
ESOUI/Ingame/ChatSystem/ChatSystem.lua:2010: in function 'ChatSystem:StartTextEntry'
ESOUI/Ingame/ChatSystem/ChatSystem.lua:2056: in function 'StartChatInput'

Dismiss Error (button that does not work)

    The same thing just happened to me. Every time I tried to port into Malabal Tor, I would get stuck in the loading screen, so I was like "fine, I'll travel there on foot." Now my character is stuck in the exact limbo you described.

    I tried repairing ESO, and disabled all of my addons, but that didn't seem to do anything.

    Same EXACT issue as described above. Also a VR5 entering Malabal Tor. It happened to me about 2 hours ago, and it's completely impossible to play my main tonight. Sucks because I am the guild tank and tonight is one of our dungeon nights. Filled out a ticket about 90 minutes ago, no reply yet. Tried repairing, no luck. If anyone knows a fix let us know!

    I had exactly the same issue, I logged into an alt and submitted a character issue ticket.

    They unstuck me within 30 min!

    You still can't get into Malabar Tor though.

    Same issue here as well. I was mistaken and thought I was entering Grahtwood because of the loading screen but it is indeed Malabal Tor that I am trying to enter, vet zone. My main character is pooched until I can get it resolved.

    My ticket got answered pretty quick (within a couple hours). They did indeed move my character to another location and all is well. So definitely put in a ticket! Think I will avoid Malabal Tor for a bit though.
