I discovered a bugged event.

At 9:39 PM I told a newcomer in “Say” chat that it was bugged.

I was still in the area fourteen minutes later at 9:53 PM, and repeated my message to another player (for which I was thanked).

Eleven minutes later at 10:04 PM I was suppressed from repeating my helpful message a third time. I tried changing the message up a little several times with no effect.

I was unable to say ANYTHING until 10:36 after I had left the zone (AND the server – I was in the LA Overflow).

I was hardly spamming. (I ASSUME this is the reason I was lip-locked for half an hour for daring to say the same thing more than three time in a 25 minute period.) I am annoyed by idiot spammers as much as the next guy, but this is RIDICULOUS!

Please re-evaluate your spam suppression system.
