I advertising on the server, and I was kicked twice for spam. I had accidentally posted the same/very similar add twice in succession, and I hit enter too fast. I recognize what constitutes as spam, but this was an instance where there had been only two messages that I had mistakenly copied. My understanding is that spam constitutes of any message repeated several times in quick succession, however mine was only twice(being two messages). I was wondering when I could be un silenced as it would be nice to communicate again. I was also wondering what exactly the spam rules are because it is kind of hard to find an exact definition in the rule book. Thank you for taking my appeal into consideration.
"Rule 6: Do not spam or caplock Offence Level: Low Spam and caps locking is not aloud here, look at other servers where you can do that if you want to. Think spam is a canned meat? Nope, it is an acronym. What does it mean? It means Stupid Pointless Annoying Messages. Pwnfilter is in place for spamming. If you do the exact same message, Pwnfilter will warn you and make it so the spam is not posted. If you get the message passed Pwnfilter and do it more than twice, and have a fast rate, you will be kicked or even banned. Fake messaging is also illegal. If you use caps lock without using a no cap, you get a warning from Pwnfilter. If you do it and pwnfilter does not stop you, mods may kick you for excessive amounts of capital letters. How it can be legal... If you spam at a low rate AND it involves an auction, you are allowed to do it. A good rate is the message once a minute." That is the definition of spamming on our server. Some more examples of spam: 1. I want food!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2. What is that???????????????????????????????????????????? 3. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 4. dkjbs;kjfsdjfjksahdfksadjhfsad;fn;s 5. -------------------------------------auction-------------------------------------- 6. LOOK I AM SELLING LOTS OF ITEMS!! 7. Who is selling godded golden armor? Who is selling godded golden armor? Who is selling godded golden armor? Who is selling godded golden armor? 8. tttttttttttttttt In conclusion: 1, 2, and 5 -- Don't use too many of one symbol, as it is considered spam. 3. Using too many letters stretched out is considered spam. 4. Pushing random buttons on your keyboard is considered spam. 6. CAPS = SPAM. 7. Sending the same message more than once in chat is considered spam. 8. Holding out a letter is spam. I hope this has helped you understand what spam is. Most mods will kick you twice with a warning message of what you are doing wrong warning you to stop. After that, a mute.
