Message suppressed for excessive texting
I had the same problem, after about 5 minutes I couldn’t talk anymore [not even in /say] so that added about another 10 – 20 minutes to my search for a dungeon group. I also didn’t like having to go to a zone I didn’t want to be in in order to find groups.
Most MMOs have global LFG channels to avoid these problems.
Stop spamming the map chat. People can still see your post. Also, change your message from time to time. Then its not spamming unless its done too much. 10message per minute = spam.
Also, try using local chat too, not only map chat. Change locations to see if there is anyone in other areas that might like to join. Use guild chat, see if a guildy wants to join.
Your message is being suppressed due to excessive texting for a reason:)
Not A Message.
I believe the;’re counting all text, including guild chat. Because when they suppress they suppress everything including guild chat. Which they should not be doing. Its up to the guild officers to decide if any chat in guild chat is too much not Arenanet.
I’ll say it again, they should be suppressing all that gold scamming not legitimate game play chat. Looking for group for a dungeon is not spamming, spamming is by definition trying to sell something.
Well, the suppressed chat is only on similar, or duplicate messages thats been spammed out multiple times within a certain time frame.
If you alter the message, you can say it.
Like even if your map chat is suppressed, you can still whisper friends, or talk in team chat or what ever.
