Did I break a rule?

Yewma · 12-30-2007, 04:40 AM

I was waiting in the chat lobby for multiplayer on FFR, and then a message appeared that said the chat was cleared by the moderator, then a flash started playing in the bottom right corner of the chat window. It was a flash a recognized, by the name of Drum Machine. When I said exactly this in chat, "Drum machine 3", I was banned. Did I break a rule? I'm pretty sure I didn't do anything wrong, I just want to make sure. I meant to say "Drum Machine <3", but for some reason the chat doesn't allow the "<" symbol.

Are you sure you were banned? If you couldn't say anything afterward, then a moderator probably just closed the chat. From what I can tell you didn't do anything wrong. By any means.

Maybe he'd been trying to make the chat quiet down, and then you posted something and he muted you.

I had just joined and the "chat cleared" message was the first thing I saw. After I said that, roughly three seconds afterward, I was booted from the lobby. Upon attempting to relog into it, I simply got the message "You are banned" to the right of the Go and Exit buttons.

I believe someone posted a flash on the MP lobby screen, a common hack nowadays. You were probably mistaken as the culprit and thus banned. Try to contact one of the MP moderators.

I'm rather new here, how would I go about doing that? Thanks for the quick responses to my issue, by the way. I thought it would take hours.

I just tried logging in again, and I'm unbanned. Disregard my previous post, and thanks for the quick responses again. Problem solved!

Ok I think I can explained what happened I think I was there at the time.. if Darkshark was there then he was on a banning spree. meaning he banned and kicked everybody except a few people on sight.

When a moderator clears the chat, that's most of the time to post an animation and anyone that post while the animation is going on makes the animation restart. So to see the entire animation, the moderator on-place probably kicked you out for saying something, whatever would've been the thing. Also, if you are banned, you should receive a Private Message via the forums telling you you've been banned. If you can go back to the chat, you were simply kicked. Solved.
