Q:

I have tried to PM a dev and it says I have to wait 2 days to send because of spam. I have never sent a message or posted anything (minus this) on forums. Anyone else had this problem or know a fix?

A:

Expanding on IC’s response: the forum error messages are not always that helpful. They sometimes correctly identify that there’s an issue, but incorrectly state the reason. So even though the reason you PM didn’t go through might be due to a full mailbox, a block, or too many other people messaging the same dev, you still got a message saying you alone were sending too many messages.

tl;dr ignore the text of the error

Might, or might not, have something to do with this:

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/support/Please-do-not-PM-Staff-Members-and-here-s-why/first#post3823110

Or, if you have a new account, there are time/use restrictions on many features.

If you want to contact staff, you can ‘Submit a Request’ through the ‘Support’ link above/below.

Good luck.
