Ajax terminated...?

[tclme elmo]

A group of us were just chatting on AJAX, specifically just sciolytrivia, and all of a sudden, our chat closed and it got terminated...it said our "session limit exceeded." or something like that. Was that bah, or what? It happened to all of us, all at the same time.

It didn't happen to me, but yah. You all got banned. My guess is that it was the school network. (you were at school, right?) At our school you can't even get onto chat.
But it could have been a mod, but I don' think so because it happened all at the same time, but only to the people that were at school.

The server banned you because there were so many of you connecting to the server from the same IP. The server has rules like that to help prevent spam bots from flooding the server.

If the school IP is still banned, I'll ask to have that removed. I'll try to get it exempted too, but unless it does get exempted, you should probably not all log in to AJAX at once form the school

Ok. It was only 4 of us, and one was barely chatting...is that considered a lot?
Thanks!
