Hitting Message Limit ie. Spamming

So if I rank up or down guild members too fast, or decline guild applications too fast - I get dropped from the game for "spamming", or "excessive messaging". Are you kidding me?!

    I believe it's not only with guild stuff.
    As far as I know, those using the Master Merchant addon, when they want to manually force the update, they need to repeat clicking "E" and it seems that after a certain amount of clicks, it's also taken as spamming.

    I'm not sure if there are other cases like that. It would be interesting to know what is the criteria exactly. An amount of click per seconds combined to an amount of seconds? Else?
    I'm out of my mind, feel free to leave a message... PC/NA

    If you happen to be lagging, any key presses made during that time gets loaded all at once when the game finally catches up with your input after the lag ends. So if the game suddenly stops moving, but you can still put in key commands, stop, the game will think you're spamming too many commands in a split second.

    There is no lagging at all - I am literally reviewing the previous weeks sales for members of my trading guild - and ranking members up or down depending on sales figures.

    This is absolutely maddening considering I am a GM and need to be able to change ranks and/or decline or accept guild applications!

    Try it! Rank 10 or so members up or down in quick succession and tell me you dont get this too...

    I am absolutely stunned this is a thing... Very poorly designed to say the least.

    This happened to me once when I was just walking through over land and wasn’t using the chat (at that point I was a solo player who didn’t even interact with others ) and I got booted. I think I asked on Reddit and it said it has more something to do with the server and your isp and it overloading too much Data or something. Im prob saying this wrong but my 70 year old father is better with technology than I am.
