Strange new glitch? [View all]

I just tried to send an SoP alert on a post in GD. When I clicked the send alert doodad it told me that I was not allowed to send the alert. It said that because my last alert went down 0-6, I can't send any alerts for 24hrs. The alerts I send today were all the stalker troll alerts. Last one I sent was hidden 6-0.

What gives?

Isn't "spamming the alert system" akin to "messing with the software?" MADem Jan 2013 #14
