Spamming, of any type, is not allowed. What we consider as spam is:
- Repeating similar messages multiple times (even if it’s slightly modified every time)
- Sending more than 3 messages in a 3 seconds period
- Sending garbage messages (Ex: ttttttttttttt; !!!!!!!!!!; sdasdhasdkajshd)
- Abusing CAPS, this means that you can’t use caps for more than 30% of your message
- We considering encouraging spam as sending messages encouraging people to spam the chat (Ex: “Say 123 if you are playing Minecraft”).
I'd say it's similar to what I bolded
