Someone was able to help me out on the steam forums. This was the solution that worked (in case others have the same problem): "Open your "Steam install location\steamapps\common\Wurm Unlimited\WurmLauncher\Launchconfig.ini". Add "JvmParam1=-Dglass.accessible.force=false" (no quotes) after the JvmParam0 line on a new line. Save and try again. Repeat this in the LaunchConfig.ini files in the Dedicated/Server launcher folder too if you are running a server that is also crashing when editing settings. This will stop the dropdown boxes crashing the game when you try to fiddle with the settings."

Sorry, you will have to dumb that down a little bit haha.. what is that and where do I find it? I've only been playing with this one character and I have just made her a GM once or twice for specific reasons then switched her back cause I didn't like playing as a GM. I should have made a separate GM character from the start, but didn't. I guess I could use Nappy's solution to make a new char as a GM but it would be really nice to just have things back to the way they were. Does anyone have any idea what might have caused this? Thanks for your help so far

Hmm, just tried that, didn't make a difference

I'm trying to edit my character's GM level, and I've been able to do this several times before without any issues, but suddenly it seems to get stuck and I'm not able to access the list of players in the local server settings window. Here is a screenshot of what happens: The window freezes up and this black box stays on top of everything else until I close the window. I've rebooted the computer a couple of times, didn't help. Anyone have any ideas or know what to do?
