    Dude...would you PLEASE not start several threads about the same topics?
    It is to the point that many people here don't know if you have a genuine disability, or are just trying to "troll".


    Try reading the Sticky Rules Thread at the top...or be prepared to "Meet The Mod". ;)

    well this is an odd question, umm unplugging the console means you unplug the console and logging of would mean your going through the start menu and going to log off and it takes you back to the character menu.

    If you really need to know...
    Logging out ensures multiple things. It ensures that you are not taking up space in the game world, That you are not trying to avoid a negative outcome in game, and that everything is in proper order.
    Unplugging your console can lead to internal damage. You can corrupt data, wipe your hard drive our straight up kill your console.
    TLDR; don't do that any more.

    False. You could POSSIBLY lose items, but your character progression is stored on ZoS servers.
