BF2S Forums Ping Kicked and lost your score? Rejoin the server!

I'm sure some of you know it, but if you rejoin a server after being kicked, you get your old points back. e.g, I was first on Smoke Screen, got kicked for slightly high ping after 20 mins or so, rejoined, and got my 30 points back. Ended up about fifth (as it took a few mins to reconnect). I assume this works with badges and ribbons as well.
