I'm not sure about this being the right place, but I didn't see a spot suitable so I chose here. But, how can I get in touch with a server administrator?

Oh, in game or on the forums? 'Cause I needed to talk to one on the forums because me and my friend [Werruraz] were messing around and spamming each other in private messages and I got banned... Sucks, if it's a helpless cause then nevermind..

- Also, I just noticed I messed up when posting this. Meant to put it in general..

Ah, well that's a problem because I can't get on the main server due to being banned as I explained above.

OMG. Do you realize how much you need to send spam the server into banning you?! 20KB PER SECOND. Thats a lot of text.

Ya I kinda realised that and learned it the hard way, which sucks it's a fun game to play. Me and him were just going back and forth at each other, sending like 5 messages a second... Sucks, I'd like to play again =/

Never spam for fun unless your the one running the server your spamming.

Spamming is a nuisance and can very well crash the server entirely. Officially spamming is a Denial of Service Attack, and DOS attacks fall udner US law as a federal offence. That should give you some image of how far this can go if done correctly.

Yes yes, I know. Eh, I know how far it can go we were not intending on trying to crash the server or anything like that. Just pestering each other really, but from the thoughts that I'm getting I don't think I'll be back on the main server any time soon, too bad...

Since it was an innocent mistake, I'm sure that if you PM a mod on here and tell him your case you'll be able to get unbanned.

Just watch out next time, eh?

Try PMing Lordmatt or Quantum or another lobby moderator, developers (like Yeaha) are probably doing other things
