This is a temporary and automatic ban for only one hour. Don't sweat it, just learn not to spam too much.

Also, pay attention to the warnings that are given before the ban actually happens.

If the automatic spam ban were not so, it would require the bot maintainers to take steps block spammers.

Bots themselves have protection from the "saying" too much within a short period of time, because they often output extensive lists. There is no reason a human would need to send as much when creating queries.

From the point of view of the server there is no difference between a human player and a bot, so no.

  • former TMW Pixel artist
  • NOT a game master

Please do not send me any inquiries regarding player accounts on TMW.


You might have heard a certain rumor about me. This rumor is completely false. You might also have heard the other rumor about me. This rumor is 100% accurate.
