Actually, you missed one step:
3-1. LS sends UserToWorldRequest to world for the user
3-2. World sends UserToWorldResponse indicating a response code (-3 world full, -2 user banned, -1 user suspended, 0 denied, 1 allowed)
3-3. LS responds to the "PlayEverquest" request to the client telling success/failure.

Then if the response back from world is 1 (or it's 0 and the user is an LS admin) then the LS sends UserToWorld to world like you state in 4.

Now, what world will do is check the users status and respond. If the server is locked and the users status is <100 then they get a denied (0) otherwise if their status >=0 they get an allowed.
