Okay. We are getting used to 'unusually long load screens' just popping up out of nowhere. We are getting used to being dashboarded when there is a lot of activity on the screen. Although my guildmates have experienced this error, this is the first time I have been thrown out of the game for 'spamming' messages. I find this very funny because I was running over a bridge in Cyrodiil to defend our possession of a scroll, and had not sent a message to anyone in hours! And the problems with the game are only getting worse. I would like to know when these 'bugs' are going to get fixed. And I do not believe I am the only person who feels this way.

    I got this error the other day trying to summon my horse. I had a friend also get it recently when he was fishing.

    I'm sure there is an error but not sure the code matches up to the issue that is causing it.

    I get this too, very rarely. Never at times, when I'm actually sending any messages. In general I'm rather unsocial, so not really spamming in chat :)

    I've been playing on the xbox for the last few months so no chance of spamming chat for me or my friends :-)

    Well...we get it on console...so I can ASSURE you it's not because of keyboard spamming. We have no text chat. LOL

    "Message" is any action you can do: Using a skill, calling your horse or anything that doesn't respond immediately when you're lagging (it's waiting for the server's response to the message).

    The problem is that everything you do is being saved and sent all at the same time when the connection is restored (players around you will see you teleporting around acting weird), making it then trivial to reach the message limit if the connection with the server was gone for long enough. The best thing to do when there is lag is nothing, just wait until the world moves again.

    Understood. The problem though is that the error message clearly points to spamming typed messages with a keyboard. The error message text is misleading.

    I had this message at least once a day before Orsinium but have only had it happen once since then. I thought the patch notes said they had fixed it, but I could be wrong
