So I was on one server I had played several times before already.
I liked the server up until yesterday.
It was one with Karkand all the time.I usually prefer those servers that have several infantry maps in rotation, but they were full, so I switched to the first with a city map that was not full.
(I have several of them in my fav-list, Sharqi, Karkand, Mashtuur just for the time the rotating maps are full)

Turned out I could be commander since no one had taken the job.
After a while I see that the western Arty gets blown up although 2 blue dots are standing there.
I hop into a Hummer and head down there to repair it. When I arrive I see the two dots and a MEC standing there, one of the blues was a medic.
So I jumped from the Hummer and ran towards them, killed the MEC with the shotgun.
Suddenly the two others start shooting at me, one of them scoring a TK.
Then one tells me to "get lost there" I spawned again and headed back towards the arty and repaired it.
Walking back into the yard right next to the Arty the MEC is back there.
Gave him a taste of the boomstick again and was yelled at a bit more. No TK this time though.

Up comes a Spec Ops to blow the Arty. I kill him. No yells from them anymore.
Then a kick vote against me gets initiated, it gets 4 votes (probably the guys that were padding) but 4 is not enough to get me out of the game.

Suddenly someone from the MEC's side (probably the one I killed twice) says "This is not your server, we are trying something out, a$$hole"

I said: "Oh, sorry. Can I pad my knife badge too? "
No reply.

They searched a new spot after that, I saw the "Padderguy [Knife] so-and-so" several times then and Padderguy finally thanked the guys that helped him "earn" his knife badge.

It is one thing when people on their clanserver pad their badges, but a totally different thing when they insult people who interfere with their little padding game.

They could have used a spot a bit off the main mayhem and no one would have been the wiser.

Ah well, probably just wanted to rant about the server, I guess.

See ya,

Well, I didn't want to report them or anything, was just annoyed with this guy insulting me.
That is what blew my fuse a bit.

If he needs this badge so badly they shouldn't have done it right next to the arty which was blown up and I needed to repair and where I naturally would try to take any red dot down but instead should have gone to a nice quite spot and done it there.

It wasn't until he started to give me the lip that anyone realized the padding.

So he was rude and stupid besides being unskilled

Best part is, that he seems to be Master Sergeant and not First Sergeant so he got the badge after the promotion.

Ah well, I slept over it and I don't want to let it spoil my fun with the game for longer than necessary and that is about...... NOW!

My worst stat padding experience was on Devils Perch as US.  I was the US commander in a rear shack.  I'm doing my thing in the commander screen and all of a sudden somebody's shooting me but I'm not dead, and at the same time I'm hearing the medic voice offering healing.  I pull out of the commander screen ready to jackhammer someone and I see a US medic next to me.  I wasn't sure what happened so I go back in the commander screen and it starts happening again.  Pull out of commander screen and wise up to the fact this medic is the one shooting me and then he's healing me for points. 

I say "cut the padding, get lost" and he says no.  So I jackhammer his face and I get punished.  I start commanding again.  The dude respawns and starts doing it again.  I tell him "I am going to TK you until you stop" and he says no.  Again I shotgun his ass and again I get punished.  So, I get up from my shack and climb halfway down a ladder and start commanding from this damn ladder so he can't reach me.  I see his tag running around above me, obviously STILL LOOKING TO PAD at my expense.  I should have reported him.

Next time just take a few screenshots of them doing it (you can spec people when you are dead...) and make sure to get their names on the screen,

soandso [knife] padder_guy
soandso [knife] padder_guy
soandso [knife] padder_guy
soandso [knife] padder_guy

Nothing more incriminating than that.

Then you can do so much more than call them names, like, have their stats reset!

Well, I didn't want to report them, just to vent some steam, I guess

And I edited the names guy out from my original post, shouldn't have put it in there in the first place, since all I wanted was to rant about the bad experience I had.

Sorry but we have enough venting its so simple to hit print screen a couple times, also get a shot of the points score at that time.

Generally death padders have a medic there healing them so they don't really die... it certainly shows up in the points screen.

Capture a few screen shot and send it in to EA if they piss you off. IF you post them at battefield ranked servers there is an admin that will do the work for you.

Some stupid clan was on a 24/7 Karkand last night.  I saw a Vodnik that was on its side, and so naturally I assumed it was abandoned, but when my mouse ran over it, I saw a red name...with a (+3) at the end!  WTF?

So I go up to it with my L85 out...completely unnoticed.  Aside from the four people in the Vodnik there was an engineer who was repairing it from the outside.  I don't know what the fuck they were doing, it looked pretty idiotic.  So I gunned down the engineer, went to the back of the Vodnik and shot both passengers in the back.  Realizing something was killing them, the machine gunner (who was on his side and desperately shooting his MG at the ground, and then the sky after his turret rotated...that cracked me up so hard) and the driver got out and finally killed me.

Call me paranoid, but I like to think that 5 people who take the game seriously enough to all wear the same clan tag probably are smart enough to know that a Vodnik on its side is usually a dangerous vehicle to be in.  No, I have no evidence, screenshots, etc...but it does make a pretty funny story.  Of all things to pad...repair points and driver special ability points???

Capt_Kefra, anything can be padded. It's a game where badges mean EVERYTHING!

I feel sad for them. I felt like going for basic knife and vet pistol one day, hopped on a Sharqi server and got both badges in the same round.

Padding anything is stupid, if you can't earn it you don't deserve it.

If they want to padding their own badges, let them. I know I earn my own badges in hard work. I did receive my basic and veteran knife badges by honest way, but in process to receive those two badges. I express enough numbers of curse when I failed to get one of those badges by just need one more kill. After I got two badges, I look back and pleased to earn them. However, I know I will continue my series of curse when I try for expert knife.

Exactly... I can look at my crappy score and know I sweated to earn those puppies! No one can accuse me of padding!

no need if you compare his knife kills from 2-3 different stats pages you will see that he was working solely on his knife badge,. 

I copied both and sent them to EA.. 

thanks for the story..
