squelch

[Ayden]

Okay, so i try to be polite as much i can but have to tell i am confused also angry, so would like to apologise if that gonna hurt, wasn't meant to.

I have toons on s1 and or s2 as well, after the todays reboot all got logged - i have auto-relog on - checked on them, all fine, and went on another game, played a few, after that just opened up the window again, what was only minimized and all good.
Went sleep for a few hrs, woke up and i can't talk it says i have several minutes squelched. Scrolled back, i didn't talked anywhere obviously, was sleeping, and just saw the messages since i have another toon what is squelched i got squelched also. Found that on all s1 toons, not on s2. I only can trade with my own alts none else, and can't talk at all in any form. Only can trade if anyone else opens it up to me.
To be honest i am more than curious to know the reason why i got this, if there is one legal reason then i take it, just can't even think what could it be ...
Tried to pm you Glitchless on s2 didn't got a response why i write this and only asking for a response if that is only a "miss" thing like it was a mistake or has a good reason i really would like to know to avoid it in the future since as i know i didn't do anything against you or the game or ToU or PP.
Thank you for advance if i get a response.

It's like herpes, once a toon is squelched, it'll spread to all of them... You need to log them ALL in and leave the windows up and open for it to go away.

This happened to me (not herpes ofc), but once my main toon was done with squelch and could talk, I logged an alt (not squelched) and it all started all over again, on EVERY toon

[Ayden]

I see, and yes all my toons logged so maybe it will end in the same time and won't refresh starting this all over again.
My problem is really what i said, that why i got squelched, when i wasn't even there at the time it happened so obviously can't do anything against the rules.
Just would like to know the cause of this

It happened to me as well. My toons auto logged, all 16 of them, while I was asleep. I wake up and was gonna greet you all in clan chat but it said I was squelched. I don't even have civil/uncivil activated so I don't know how I could be.

Thank you for the responses, really appreciate that you Qratos and Beet shared your own experience, but those prove that mine isn't an extreme or individual case.
I think that it should be a bug, or some reason behind that we would like to now - at least me for sure, can't tell enough times that how much curious i am.
Hope whenever that many minutes count down Rokka and i will be both freed and won't come something next.
Also again i ask you Glitcless that please respond something, even a "this was on purpose" or "you should know the reason" or i don't know what, can be an answer whenever i don't want to give tips and would like to know the true reasons.
Thank you.

Ayden, you told us you live with and share a router with someone who was squelched. Since squelches spread via IP address, this is why. It doesn't mean you were targeted individually, and we likely still love you.

[Dorcas]

soo why was rokka the ip sharer squelched then. and beet who doesnt even use open chats.

[Ayden]

Thank you for the answer Glitchless, and that is right what you are saying except the thing that the IP address is different on the 2 computer, but both connetcting to the internet via the router. Saying with that i play on a different PC than Rokka, not knowing his pass and he doesn't know mine.

Also good to know that i wasn't doing the reason of this, was more than confused what i could have done.

i am loved! That made my day really but i am sure that just now as squelched, so i can't poke you via pm the numerous questions i have

End of thread also i think.

ISPs use NAT (Network Address Translation) so while your IP addresses are unique within your own little intranet, when they connect to the Internet you share an IP address. Only way around that would be if your ISP switched entirely over to IPv6 and dropped NAT and IPv4 altogether, but I've never heard of an ISP that's done that.

10 years or so from now, that'll be the case. IPv6 still isn't accepted everywhere, so it's not feasible to do that now. But that is the way of the future, because with IPv6 there are enough addresses for pretty much every living thing on this planet, human or otherwise, to have their own unique address. (IPv4 allows for 4.3 billion addresses, IPv6 allows for 340 undecillion addresses).

This might help you understand better, Ayd. I'm using numbers that may be different from yours, but you should get it.

Nodiatis - only sees 78.135.43.12
..|
Your ISP............................. 78.135.43.12
..|....................................... /
Your Router - has 2 sets of IPs.... One external, assigned by ISP
.../.....\....... one internal, probably 192.168.0.1 or 10.5.10.1
../.......\
Your PC Your roommate's PC
192.168.0.2..... 192.168.0.3


If you go to whatismyip.com from your pc and on your roommate's pc, you will see they say the same address.
