HAVE YOU BEEN BARRED FROM GAMES UNFAIRLY? read this!?

UPDATE! Why people are getting barred.

When I seen how many people were getting barred,too many for abuse reports.i knew it was a yahoo glitch! Here is whats going on.Yahoo installed Spam bot trackers in lounges to stop = bar them, from games.It tracks Ids and how many changes they make.EXAMPLE ! Now say you enter a Intermediate lounge with a 1500 ID.

You hop into a table,get booted,try 3 more,booted,now you go to beginners lounge.BARRED! spam bot tagged you! This is how I thing it works! Automatic 24 hrs 1 st time,48 hr the next,72 hrs 3rd time. 4th time account closed! I am already seeing a few people with this problem.This is really bad for tourney directors how need to hop from table to table.Yahoo can not help you! To many reports from Bots and players asking Why! By the time they get to yours times up!Try this when playing.Select a lounge matching your rating.when you get in,spend a few minutes checking table player’s rates.pick a table,join and play a few games before changing tables!IF you join a lounge but do not play,and try another,try and stay there for a few games.Do not bounce from table to table,lounge to lounge.THE SPAM BOT WILL GET YOU!

Update:

this is an explanation of whats going on to answer so many who wanted to know WHY.

Update 2:

this is an explanation of whats going on to answer so many who wanted to know WHY

they got barred!

Update 3:

Since the sex bots caused you to get barred!Do this!

the bots are now staying in lounges and not moving.when you get in a lounge,click ratings,look at bottom of list.bots play no games and advertise a web cam.copy their id name,game and lounge,send it to this link and yahoo will bar them! abuse@cc.yahoo.com

Update 4:

Sorry wrong link use this one instead,abuse tab.

    I would imagine the program is called a bot tracker.It has happened to me in pool a few times.Yahoo will take away a rare ID without notice, and there is no appeal.I lost an id that I created and used for 3 years exclusively. Yahoo took it the day I went All-Star. I rattled the windows at yahoo to no avail.Yahoo doesn't care how many ID's you make, so I guess they don't care how many they deactivate either.
