This morning I was semi running the Champ Train in Queensdale. No one had a Commander icon up, so I turned mine on when I arrived and tried my best to answer “where is the train?,” coordinate the boar walk, try to get Wasp and Boar in, etc. It was going very good. No one was trollish, no fighting in chat, a great morning.

At the very end I had to leave for lunch. The message I was trying to type was “this is my last stop.” This way another person can pop up the icon before the event was over and it can continue to be run well with one person loosely keeping track of it overall.

Well, no. I couldn’t. According to the games client I was excessively messaging. Only I hadn’t said anything in chat for 9 minutes.

Attached below are the chat logs from my time spent in the zone. My “Main” chat pane shows all chat (guild, party, say, whisper, map). If it was sent to me in any way, it shows up in main. Same if I send chat out, it’s there. In other words, everything I said in chat can be found in the screen shots below.

ironically I was complaining to another person about the trade post “error” which is another problem entirely that also catches tons of people and stops them dead in their tracks when they are not doing anything wrong.

I’ve been suppressed before like this, although never so obviously incorrect.

For the record I never spam chat, harass people, pick on people, abuse chat or anything else like that. I like to think I am almost always a positive person to have around in chat, so I see no reason to be on some sort of list of people who can be suppressed faster due to past problems.

The 2 glaring things that I think should be worked on are the chat suppression and the trade post suppression. I think both of those seem to be in need of some tweaking in an other wised polished game.

Opinions? Any other experiences? Doesn’t seem to be working as intended…

It seems mostly random.

I have been suppressed after being silent for 10 minutes or so (similar to your case).
I have also typed and typed and typed and had no suppression whatsoever.
Sometimes someone will rant on map chat and i will think “any second now they will get suppressed and stop” but they carry on ranting for another half an hour.
I had wondered if Commanders were exempt from suppression but your post disproves that.
This problem seems to especially happen on trains, as one person will try and call the next boss for everyone to follow, making them suddenly mute with no way to tell anyone else and “pass the baton”.
It’s random and frustrating and i cant work it out.
I just carry on doing what i’m doing and hope i dont get randomly suppressed.
