Hey guys i was wondering if someone can lend me their knowledge. I have here a raffle code but it needs some tinkering. I need the Max amount of tickets purchased to be 3 even if the command is entered again. So if I bought 3 the first time and i tried to buy 2 the next it wont allow me to. The last time i used this everyone could buy as many tickets as they wanted, all they had to do was repeat the command, i want to prevent that from happening. Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance.

on *:TEXT:!buyticket &:#:{
  if (%open == 1) {
    if ($2 > 3) {
      msg $chan Sorry $nick but you can only buy a maximum of 3 tickets!
    }
    if ($2 < 4) {
      var %i = 0
      var %count = $2
      var %topic = $+(#,.,$nick)
      var %user = $readini(Points.ini,%topic,Points)
      var %final = 10 * %count
      var %remove = %user - %final
      if (%remove > 0) {
        writeini -n Points.ini %topic Points %remove
        while (%i < %count) {
          write Raffle.ini $nick
          %i = %i + 1
        }
        msg $chan $nick you have bought %count tickets spending %final of your points leaving you with %remove left!
      }

      if (%remove < 0) {
        msg $chan Sorry $nick but you dont have enough points to buy %count tickets!
      }
    }
  }
}
