Spamming

[[TC]»Elmo«]

A couple of parts of the points system that are relevant to this case:

More CAPS means more points.
If the message is the same as your previous message (this check has a timeout) the points for the new message are *tripled* - repeated messages within the timeout are 99.9% likely to be spam.

The system is somewhat more complicated than that, but those two parts will easily have meant that your message(s) got you into spam trouble - the second time you said it was beyond the timeout, but the third time (which happened within 1s of the second time) would for sure have generated a massive amount of spam points.


The system is designed such that if you physically type messages, you are very unlikely to get into spam trouble due to the time it takes to actually type.
However, obtrusive things such as many messages, repeated messages, using multiple binds and speaking in CAPS will likely get you in spam trouble.
