[INVALID] Idea: HelpBot 'Can I be Admin' Provocation Limit

Excessive spamming by noob trolls triggering the 'Can I be admin' autoresponse has become quite an issue, and thus I suggest a system of warning the player automatically not to constantly provoke HelpBot with this question.

It is very disruptive when chat becomes filled with warnings by players of banning from admins, and is quite annoying, ruining trade deals and the general friendly chat of MineRealm.

Upon the offender provoking the same response a second time, a private message will be sent to the offender such as 'You have provoked Helpbot 1/3 times, do not continue or you will be banned.'

The third time would be 2/3 times, and the fourth would be autobanned, with the public message:
'Example, I am banning you for spamming.'

Please vote and voice your opinions on this matter,
Thank you!

I honestly think that this is a wonderful idea. It does get disruptive when they ask multiple times and completely ignore either the players or the auto response telling them no.

It would be nice to see something like this for the fake pmc people, but I can see how that would be a bad thing :P

HelpBot doesn't answer the same question multiple times in a row, and also auto-blocks users who excessively trigger it.
