Ok why and how did I get banned from a room at yahoo spades?

Question

I tried to play a game of spades and it said I was barred until tomorrow..Why? Who is banning me and why? I never spoke or said anything bad.

Answer 1

unfortunately, it's not just you.
ever since they have started supplying ads they have been having a lot of problems.
i really think that with the amount of people saying they have been banned, that they can't access game rooms, that they can't see cards, they can't see texts, etc. that it can't just be a "reporting" "user" or "computer" problem.
it's a "yahoo's changing things around & messing things up right now" thing. hopefully, really soon, it will get better...

and, unfortunately, i don't have a magic remedy for you to feel better, or to make it all better. it's just going to have to do with luck. sometimes i think some get it to work, and sometimes they don't. i hear that some people can turn off the pc, & reboot, and that helps. others turn off pop up blockers. but, the real root of the problems, obviously, comes down to yahoo's programming at this point. it can't be everyone else, right?

UNLESS>>>> you have a pop up blocker on, just turn off your pop up blocker.
that should do the trick

but, if you have already turned off your pop up blocker, try this. when you're just going join a table, click on options, then click box next to small windows.

Answer 2

I asked the same question a week ago, I never got an answer but it has not happened again but now I cannot get in the game at all. If it ever comes up I cannot sit n a game or I freeze up....Think yahoo made a bad mistake with there latest update..Have u downloaded the new yahoo tollbar someone told me it is causing problems and u may need 2 delete it.

Answer 3

why wont the Yahoo spades recreation enable me right into a room, and when I get in, why is there a negative lag? I truly have tryed starting up off java logging to no avail. I truly have tryed each and every thing stated, I truly have Microsoft VM and it would not help to meddle with the java settings, i have tryed each and every mix of settings and that i visit get in often times and infrequently i visit't. often times there's a lag and infrequently there is not any longer. lately, the lag comes and is going throughout a recreation, which ability to me that some variations are being made. when I used to have dial up, the "booters" were given me disconnected from the internet with IM bombardment, I truly have talked about that you could not IM with the former gray field version in yahoo video games anymore, which facilitates with human beings being tempted to cheat, although the authentic CHEATERS HAVE one yet another ON THEIR buddy list likely... SO WHATS the version? So, the merely answer I truly have is that yahoo is operating on it, I truly were informed that there is a team of somewhat educated monkeys eagerly attempting to advance a answer to the dishonest complications, it truly is causing the lag project, I say it truly is extreme time to positioned those monkeys on word!

Answer 4

I am having the exact same problem and no one seems to be able to know what to do. I can't even find any FAQs about what to do or where to look. I can't get into any spades rooms now and I am in the same boat as as you. I haven't done anything to anyone or been rude or cheated. I hope this can be answered soon!

Answer 5

it can mean you were reported for abuse in games,truely or falsely by someone,some people use this feature just to get even for things like being booted from room or for you winning the game.or it might be a yahoo glitch, try this;log on to yahoo mail or messenger 1st then go to games. games section is having log in problems

Answer 6

np yahoo games is messed up this is what I got back LOL: Hello,

Thank you for contacting Yahoo! Customer Care.

We appreciate you bringing this incident to our attention. Its
important to us that you have a positive experience while using Yahoo!
Games. Well be sure to look into this situation and take the
appropriate action regarding this individual.

There are many different ways you can shield yourself from abuse:

-- Profanity Filter --

If you choose to enable the profanity filter, profane words will be
replaced with an "@" symbol in the chat area. To enable this feature, go
into a game lobby and click "Options. Under the heading "Profanity
Filter, you can choose the strength of the filter -- none, weak, or
strong. "None" means no profanity filter. "Weak" catches common profane
words. "Strong" also catches clever use of dashes and underscores
between letters that would normally be missed by a filter.

-- Ignore --

Still bothered by other players? You can block their chat indefinitely
if youd like. To ignore a player, double-click their name in the list
of players. A new window will open, showing information about this
player. At the bottom of the window is a checkbox labeled "Ignore.
Simply check this box and youll no longer receive chat messages from
that player.

-- Instant Message and Invite Blocking --

You can also block instant messages and invitations. Blocking instant
messages will allow you to only receive instant messages from users on
your friends list. If receiving too many invites is becoming a nuisance,
you have the option to block all invitations from popping up on your
screen. You can choose either of these features by checking the boxes
next to these options in the game room -- where you select a table to
play.
