Why is this happening?

Ok, I just finished adding my "saving/loading" code in my game, everything works fine, except one thing:

When I load the game, my character WILL load, but then about a second later, for some reason it asks me if I want to create another character, then if I do, it overwrites the character I just loaded...

I'll add my code if needed later

When you load a character, do you have the mob go to the proc and load, as well as delete the src? It's kind of hard to explain, so I'll show you.
client/proc/LoadMob(char_ckey)
    var/mob/NM
    var/savefile/F = new("save")
    F["/[ckey]/[char_ckey]"] >> NM
    if (!NM)
        return 0
    else
        return 1
mob/ChooseChar
    proc
        ChooseCharacter()
            var/list/players = src.CharacterList()
            var/list/Menu = new()
            Menu += players
            var/result = input("Who do you wish to load?,"Load")in Menu
            var/s = src.client.LoadMob(result)
            if (s)
                del(src)
            else
                src.ChooseCharacter()

Didn't work.. Still after I load a character, it still makes me create a new character.. I am now using deadron's character handling and it does the exact same thing using this well....

Anybody else have any ideas why?

Possibly your saving system doesn't work. Are you defining both the load and save to the same file?

Well I have it semi-fixed.. It still asking for me to create a new character after I've already loaded a character, but isn't resetting me...

EDIT:: I just tried deleting my character then trying to create a new one and see if it worked alright, and now the map won't load--the screen just stays black.....

What's going on!!??

Also, I just added GM commands, and for some reason they're showing up as "area" tiles.. They're showing up in the "mob" section of map editor.. Have a reason why this is happening?

Ok... I'm about to friggen give up... This is driving me insane.. I've tried everything I know to do to my knowledge, I've looked at every "character saving/loading" lib/demo I can find.. EVERYTIME, and I mean EVERYTIME I add new code for saving, I'll end up getting a CRAP load of indention errors.. If I fix those, I get even MORE errors.. I have no clue what to do anymore.. This has been going on for around 2 days now....

We need the programming to pinpoint the programming error.
