This happened before I joined the channel.
I only joined the channel to ask them why they were doing this and to try get them to stop

That's probably B.Net acting up.

Those realm downs are maybe link to this spam. Battle.net isn't the property of d2jsp but of Blizzard (but you know that obviously).

As a result, Blizzard should give you a better answer than us.

unfortunately with all of the spammin on d2 these days, your best option is to just ignore whispers from anyone not on your friends list.

dnd and squelching someone only lasts so long as you're logged in. once you log out and log back in again, both of those options reset.

just use

/o igw

otherwise known as /options ignorewhispers
this is a permanent change, unless you disable it by doing /o unigw
(options unignore whispers)

that means all those people are on the same IP.. probably same computer

if you get them all to whisper you at once they'll get kicked from battle.net instantly, whoever is running them isn't too bright

also, he isn't smart enough to hack an account if he can't proxy a bnet client

Are you kidding? Everyone gets this lol. It's just part of the game now. If you get spammed while in-game just press "N" and all text gets removed. I don't even pay attention to it anymore. But no, it's not "dangerous" unless you actually visit their website and start spending money there.

this lol, find out if you can type ?version or ?trigger or some other form to make the bots talk (maybe join channel messages?) and watch him get ip banned for flooding
