Failed Bot check while still on a 10 min. ban. (in General)

I don't know If I should have posted this somewhere else or chatmailed Jon or something, so correct me if this is in the wrong place, okay?

I accidentally pressed "re-load all tabs" when refreshing the tabbed opponents I have and I got a 10 min. ban. Now I tried to refresh again to see if the ban had ended and I recieved a message for a bot failure! I do not believe it should have done that, lol. I wish to have the ban removed and any BA I lost while waiting to be restored to me.

This has been a long time bug, seen lots of posts on it. So probably won't be fixed soon. It's never happened to me though. Just be careful next time. I also think if you become a supporter you become immune to the 10 minute ban or something.

I don't think they can give you back your BA, but they might be able to remove the ban if they see this before the hour's up.

alright, dang man, this sucks! I hope they see this post soon... Thanks for the quick reply though!

You use tabs? I would highly suggest not using tabs in CB. For this reason especially, you probably fought on one tab, got a botcheck, but tabbed over before realizing it, which brought up the 10 minute suspension in a later tab. Thus, getting that and the 60 minute ban for the botcheck for not tabbing to it since you could not fight anyways due to the 10 minute suspension.

Dang, that probably happened... This is the easiest way to make a fight list made though, that I have found, because I'm not a supporter. I'll do this a different way using the f5 button to re-load. That way hasn't failed me yet so I'll just stick to it now.
