Last night I was having some GREAT games, probably some of the few I have really enjoyed playing, scoring either 1st or 2nd . Got my Vet Pistol Com. Badge and also achieved the "Distinguished Service Ribbon" (15 team points, got the drum role and all) but this latter one hasn't downloaded. After the rounds of getting the D.S.R. I went and looked on BFHQ but it didn't show. So I tried to get it again on a couple of other rounds after that and got nearly 30 team points each time, but didn't do the drum role again....
Anyway, I've let this go for now and will see what happens when I go back online l8r.
My MAJOR GRIPE I have is, last night I was just about to enjoy another points-filled round, when out of the blue I get kicked. The reason?!?...

KICKING!!! metallicatt Inappropriate squad name! (Admin decision)

WHAT THE!!!
I didn't create a squad called me. I was Squad Leader and had been for quite a few rounds.
And as far as I am aware... I didn't think you could 'name' a squad!!
I thought the server allocated random names.
"Admin decision".
Is this the work of a power hungry administrator who decided to exert his/her God-like powers for fun (or jealousy. Lol, yeah right)?? or just a 'gliche'.
I want to know, has anyone else been kicked/booted/dropped like this, or for any other RIDICULOUS reason??
If so, what was the reason given?
P.S. I was on a GAMEARENA server (#13, I think. 32 size) and was sometime between 1:30 and 3:00 am. Is there anyway to track this?
