    These are network data packets that go between you and server. It has nothing to do with chat messages or email messages. It is designed to catch people who use macros or bots to rapidly press key sequences. Sometimes it will catch innocent players if they are bashing away at keys, perhaps in frustration, and it is being done rapidly enough to appear robotic/automated. The other possibility is network lag. You press 10 keys in 10 seconds, there is some kind of network issue between your ISP and ZOS, and things get backed up. Eventually it clears out and suddenly ZOS gets all 10 key presses at once and decides you are hitting keys too fast to be a human and are a bot or a macro.

    on PC, sometimes addons can bug out as well and will cause this to happen

    most addons are usually designed with some kind of delay so it shouldnt trigger the rate limit boot, but either due to lag or a bug in the addon, it can sometimes cause this to happen too

    i have my main house (grand topal hideaway) listed in the housing tours, it has multiple target dummies, scribing altar, and grandmaster stations (in progress being filled out), as well as almost every antiquity furnishing on display to preview them

    feel free to stop by and use the facilities
