Post subject: Maxed out number of ?messages sent

I need to know what happens if you max out your ?messages limit (I believe it is 17). You get a message "You have sent too many messages" beyond that. Is there a time limit when you can send more? Or is it bugged and the person receiving the message has to ?messages before you can send again? If that is the case, what about if you ?message accounts that are no longer in use? You can never message again? I'm sure this is not the case, but I don't know for sure. Any information on this topic would be appreciated.

Even at this point 7 hours later I still cannot send any message.

15 = Limit one player can send out. Sometimes (Most the time) biller bugs and limits at 17, unless it is now the new limit, which is possible as I have been out of the loops for quite a few years now.

Until those messages are read and purged (When you type ?messages and leave and come back, sometimes doesn't purge right away even), then you will be able to send more.

There isn't really anything we can do about this. This is a Ghost Ship or PriitK matter. At least, I don't think there's anyone else who could handle it - I'm only guessing at Ghost Ship being able to.

We use MessageBot in Trench Wars to mass message everyone

(They have to join a "channel" though)
There is even a web interface on www.trenchwars.org/msgbot $
