What in the world is this?

Hey mates,

Came across one interesting phenomenon: I was commanding Titan mode game and when attempted to warn my teammates about spotted enemies I received interesting verbal warning:
"Shut up and ditch this channel"
followed by the written message on the bottom of my screen:
"Blocked for 19 seconds"

That happened quite a few times during one of the games...

Any advice?

Thanks Question

hmm this event has happened to me a few times

I found out that if you keep repeating message alerts it warns you of spamming and then blocks you for 30 secs

cheers

Had this same thing happen to me a few times lately... I contacted EA about it, and they said they weren't sure about what it was either, as it wasn't something that was programmed in... If there are a few people having this issue, then I would say it was something that was programmed in...

If you are on the server and start spamming. Like hitting page up 4 or 5 times it will respond with the message

Get off this network I think and then it blocks you for 30 seconds.

I think it is just to stop people becoming annoying with the same message all the time.
