_rqxw1214 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I was looking around at the Recruit chat when suddenly someone asks what the abbreviation for "want to buy" is. I politely answered "wtb = want to buy," when all of a sudden I get a message from [DE]GrapeLord saying I got kicked out and I should use the trade chat next time. REALLY? Auto-kicked out because of a key word? I guess I should'a known WTB is obvious, and I should've seen it coming as a troll thing. But the kick-out thing was just off. I kinda see this GrapeLord pressing ctrl+f and kicking out those who pop up with the key word instead of actually reading. I tried talking but they never replied to the chatbox. I hate to come out as a whiner, but come on, I don't think it's right to punish someone for something they didn't do.If it happened to me, it might have happened to others as well. And I hope this does not go unnoticed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)IIIDevoidIII Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 [DE]GrapeLord aka [DE]KickBot is a bot, and kicks players based on keywords written in the chat. Sorry to say, but the person who wrote that message knew this and exploited your nice nature for their own amusement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Amaterasu- Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 It kicks you to prevent others from spamming chat with things that nobody wants to buy if you have a problem with it report the player who asked in the first place trolling is against the code of conduct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rexlars Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 1. Well for starters, relog & you're back in. 2. Something you didn't do? Someone made you type "Wtb" in the chat? 3. Obvious troll was obvious, you had it coming. lol And yes, it happens to people all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_bunny Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Just make sure you don't type TrAsh and Prime together. That also gets you kicked for some reason. I have seen at least 10 people getting kicked because of their witty way of saying they don't favor Ash Prime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Amaterasu- Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Where can I do that? go to support here: https://digitalextremes.zendesk.com/hc/en-us click on submit a request and then click report user or hack although it probably helps if you have a screenshot doubt they'll do much unless you have proof Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S0V3REiGN Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 (edited) Yup, seen this in chat before its really nothing new. I think most know that DEwhateverhisnameis its a bot that will boot you for just typing that. The cat like lightning speed reflexes that you get banned from the channel should really give that away. Good luck and sorry someone took advantage of your helping nature. Edited August 5, 2015 by S0V3REiGN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
