Social banned

I Have been social banned on 3 different accounts for sending guilds mails. On each account i used a different mass mail addon and each account was only about 20-60 mails in before each was banned. This happened right after store and account maintenance and since all tickets have been ignored (not even a robot response) I am bringing this here. @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom @ZOS_BillE any help pushing this along would be helpful. Ticket number 190626-003506 if that helps

✭✭✭✭✭Unfortunately a lot of mailing AddOns like to push the time limits on sending mail. Plus, i wouldn't put it past ZOS to change the limits without letting anyone know.
Any mass email AddOn should play it safe or let the user decided if they want a shorter delay and risk a ban ...

Noblis01✭✭✭Ah ha, so that's it ! @lordhakai is slowing the server down. The hampsters must be fed before you tax the server.
But, using any email add-on is risky. It could make you appear to be a bot or gold seller in some games.6 -
lordhakai✭✭✭yeah but it is a needed risk since there is no guild mail feature implemented by zos8

✭✭✭✭✭OP. Use a better addon. If your addon is doing it to fast then you will get social banned. Zos does not support issues concerning your addons.3 -

✭✭✭I imagine some limits were changed with the recent api addon changes. People were focused on the impact to MM, but I imagine Shissu’s reading of guild history had a bigger performance impact. All guild history, not just sales, was throttled. Wouldn’t be surprised is mail throttling was tweaked too.
That said, oh how I hate all those mails. Why does being a member of several trade guilds mean getting bombarded with bulk mails? I instantly delete them all and wish those addons didn’t exist. Use the MOTD, and ideally put all the info about the events for the week in a single MOTD posted right after trader flip.
If Zos made changes that make the mailer addons impractical to use, good for them.7 -

✭✭✭What is the purpose of a guild mass-mail? Isn't the MOTD supposed to address that? If GMs didn't keep triggering it every other minute with a punctuation correction or some other minor change, I'd actually not need an Addon to turn of MOTD notification.12 -
lordhakai✭✭✭The motd has a character limit so that is why mass mails exist. For all those that dont like guild mails no one is forcing you to be part of a guild but they are a necessary evil. This is a post about seeking assistance if your goal is not to that end take you salt to another topic.
Also, @idk I used shisshu, godsend. and mailr each one got me banned is there another good one that your aware of?10 -

✭✭✭✭✭As someone said the limits probably changed. Zos is limiting the frequency addons can request information to reduce server load. I pasted the link where Rich says as much.

Being able to send guild mail to everyone and by rank is a good QoL request to make of Zos.0 -

lordhakai✭✭✭I would settle at this point for the social ban being lifted. If i can send guild mails for the time being that is something I can work around. However, blocked access to guild bank and guild traders is not0

✭✭✭✭✭Classic ZOS.
First they encourage players to create trade guilds because there is no AH. Then they don't provide any guild tools, forcing players to use add-ons. Then their system social bans players for using add-ons because they didn't anticipate people using add-ons.
Hopefully you get this resolved soon. And keep us posted.15
