One Hour Ban

Post by Big Crunch »

I have been banned for one hour for spamming. I agree with the rule, but i was lagging and trying to cast a spell. It seems as though there is something that could be done about this. I will sit out my allotted time, no complaint, however I would ask that spell 'spam' be overlooked like trade spam.

When I first started out (2 weekends ago) I tried some magic spells and they didn't seem to work (hey, I am still a n00b ;-) so I repeated it several times but when I saw the message about being banned for spamming if I would continue with this way of doing things I scratched my head and asked someone in town. And doing something else for a little bit removed the warning for a pending ban.

Assuming this is the case for everyone (and why should it not be)... you got a fair warning and should have acted accordingly ;)

No I do not think it needs changing. If anything it needs to stay the same and bans for trade spamming should be inforced more ;)

you are infact a noob. I have the 4144 patch that allows for hotkeyed spells. I hit the button too fast for me to notice the warning. I didnt haveto type anything. Furthermore, trade is an integral part of the game. If trade spam is a problem, we need a place for trading. Mentioning every 10 minutes that i have something for sale doesnt cut it. I dont mention it repeatedly in a short amount of time, however stating it every couple of minutes is no big deal. Also there is no auto ban for 'trade' spam. There shouldnt be for spells. Period. ;)

Sookill crashed my client once by sending me hundreds of trade requests a second.

Just wait the hour. The same happened to me and I just waited. It's not worth going to all this trouble.

Sookill is a spammer and hacker. He spammed Enchilado and hacked me a while back. he sucks :P
