I've never understood how one or two lines to screw up a script could be considered spamming. Constant/repetative messages are what I've considered spam in the context of the game.


It's not. Most players have the common sense to send a couple FedCom messages (or even hails if turned on) to the target, and if it works, it works, and if not, they go about getting around the script some other way. These players don't bother me in the least bit. Without trying to sound uppity, I can say that I've never tried to exploit another player's script via comms in any way, but I don't have a problem with it being done to me (or other players).

Some players just insist on being outright annoying and spamming FedCom, either by looping the same thing over and over again, or turning on a "rebroadcast" script. I'm really not sure which one is worse, considering they both annoy the yell outta me.

As always Rave is a smart lady Yes, I was referring in the very beginning of this long string to spamming of this same line, which I saw at times upto 50x in a row via fedcomm or private hails, and was spammed to me every minute or so for hours on end at times.

Scripts are very much a part of the game, finding bugs in them is good as it does help to have fixes implemented, spamming is bad.
