I get response you have been barred from this room until 5:05 AM on Jan 30. What causes this?

Answer 1

One of two things happened ... you got booted ... or ... disconnected and logged in again right away and the new program technology GLITCHED and barred you for it (unfairly)... Or ... you violated Yahoo Terms Of Service and Yahoo's new programming to catch spammers, people running booter programs, or scroller programs, banned you. Wait about 5 minutes before logging back in to avoid this happening. The 1st time is usually 24 – 48 hours.

Answer 2

.You click too fast/too much and jump around too much.... Yahoo's new technology, has a glitch ... banning IDs
... this doesn't mean you violated TOS. Many are getting chat bans for no reason. If you got booted / disconnected ... then can't loggin click this link to learn more and tell yahoo > http://www.freecreed.com/userid.html ...

Perhaps if enough people tell Yahoo and they get enough complaints....they will do something about it. ( keep in mind yahoo work on a VERY delayed response)

But if you have done any of the below expect to be banned
Yahoo has changed the "goalposts" to try and stop the sex bots / scrollers / booters / abusers / cheats...If you scroll ..type too fast...or..send multiple invites...jump lounges or tables ..click kibitz multiple times...use multiple nics..or basically click around too much....you will be BANNED....Yahoo thinks you are up2 mischief doing these things....
If you run a booter ..spamm..... violate the law ... cuss or abuse chatters among other things ... and Yahoo receives and abuse report ... and RECEIVES A COPY OF THE PAST CHAT SESSION (SCREEN SHOT) , Yahoo has the USA courts legal permission to deactivated or ban accounts.
minor banns can last for 8 hours.........others years..most times it is only the ID that is banned........ for major violations it is an IP bann
Use another ID or make a new ID till your bann has finished
