Why do I keep getting muted?

[lilromeoz]

So there's nothing against advertising in the game lobby but it says I was muted for spam. I switch lobby's every time I say something so how could it possibly be spam??

Chat from lobbies are all linked, all 14-15 of them.

When advertising, it helps to send the message around once or twice a minute, maybe even three or four times if you really want players.

If you advertise every 10 or so seconds, and it looks like the majority of your messages are flooding the chat, you will be warned and muted for spam.

Definitely not that frequently. Maybe once a minute, definitely not more than twice. I would usually try to stick with one message per page. E.g You shouldn't be able to see your previous advertisement before you advertise again.

I mean, I'm not usually one to advertise servers, especially if it's for one of my own, so this frequency is probably best and safest.

of course... if you're chrisily or Contribe advertising Sete or Elektrok... smh...

Once per minute is your safest bet, not only for your safety, but for the sanity of the community as well.

As stated above all the all the lobbies are linked. I can confirm that you were indeed spamming in the lobbies, so there was a reason behind your punishment
