Kickbot Overreacting

Recommended Posts

Today there was like an alert on nagas for one of vaubans helmets.
I went to the Recruiting page and saw a bunch of people asking for a Taxi.

So I wrote "WTT Nagas Alert." I just was willing to taxi people to Nagas...

But the kickbot just kicked me for being nice to people? I dont get it; "You have been kicked from recruiting chat, next time use the TRADE channel"

So I need to trade being a taxi for platinum? or keys?

I don't see how this belongs in the TRADE channel.

 

Plz help me some1 i'm lost with this one.

I think it was "WTT"

 

^ That.

Kickbot looks for key phrases like "WTT" "WTB" "WTS" and finds it inappropriate for any channel except Trade Chat. Probably just best to type out that you're looking to taxi people.

WTT is 'Want to Trade' so it's included in the list of 'Trading jargon' and does not belong to Recruiting tab. You are using it the wrong way.

Still, I've seen instances of brand new players express excitement over joining the game and ask for help in regional and then chatbot kicks them. Then everyone present starts laughing about the new player experience being harsh.

It can mean several things. So... Kickbot is just over reacting. Do try not to speak in your own lanuguage in any of the chats... my experiences with kickbots and language "sensors" they just kick or kickban you for certain words. even if the sensor/bot doesnt know(hasnt got it in its programming w/e)  the language -.-   Kickbot overreacts on stuff that doesnt matter. But when folks are raging and flaming. and calling names in general chat then suddenly Kickbot turns a blind eye... What?

One can hope reading comprehension soon takes hold of our young society. It states at the beginning of the chat itself where you take other subject matters of chat; trade to the trading channel, recruiting to the recruiting channel.

ah ok thnx guys

I just didnt wanted to write Willing To Taxi

so i wrote WTT

I didnt know kick bot reads that as Wants To Trade

My bad :c so how long does the kick last?

hope it's not 24hish

1st kick is only for hte session, you are unbanned from the channel if you quit and relog into game.

DE might make the rules on the chat more clear to the playerbase, because i seriously doubt that those who don't use the chat functions all that much and never visit the forums even know there IS a kickbot.

 

It's not like it takes long to understand if you aren't an imbecile. It literally just kicks you and you can relog and be unkicked.
