Hear this i was banned from all internode (Aus) servers for "C4 Whoring".

WTF ? It isn't an exploit, if it were then why is there a badge that requires 37 explosives kills in a round... how else are you meant to achieve this badge other than throwing C4 at people ????

Illegal??  First and foremost, Your playing on someone elses dollar. Until Your paying for A server theres really no room to complain.

Im waiting for the first Lawsuit against EA For Reseting or Messing with someones Global score Or Messing with or shutting down of a PAID server Thats Not in violation Of Any Socalled ROE.

Just an Observation.

My suggest you to get your expert explosive badge at LNC with 18 players. Just type LNC on search server box and it should have three servers under LNC. Enter the server with 18 players. I did get my expert explosive from this server. Some players did complain, but admin didn't complain at all. When I got my expert explosive, I did kill players 47 time with explosive.

Good luck.

Ranked servers cannot ban unless the person is cheating...that is illegal under ea guidelines and they can be reported....if it was unranked then it woudl nto matter but ranked servers have specific rules they must adhere 2. to mantian a ranked status...

Limiting access to any weapon/vehicle is gounds for the server to be shut down by the RoE (assuming itis a ranked server.) It is the same thing as saying Knife only, or No armor/apc. The resrictions might be small and only encompass a single weapon but is essentially the same thing as resricting all wepaons but 1.

Ranked servers must follow rules to be ranked, these are outlined in the RoE. It doesnt matter if you pay for it or not. If you don't want to run a server based on these rules, then feel free to run an unranked one.

Its simple.

Sure they do and there rules are stated in the ROE.... It is forbidden to kick and ban someone who used a specific weapon since they would restrict the ways of the game... however it is allowed to kick/ban someone who plays in a disruptive way. Since the use of C4 all the time is disrupting normal gameplay, the admin is perfectly safe since he did not prohibit the use of C4 but only the frequency...

He didn't say shit about a lawsuit, just a formal complaint to get either un-banned or some disciplinary action against Internode (threatened to get banned from there myself), since EA does give out strict rules to ranked servers about banning and kicking and making their own rules

I was benned from a server within 10 seconds of joining. The 6 guys on the server started a poll to ban me the second I joined the game and I was banned before I even got to join a team. I had never been to that server before and I didn't know any of the guys on the server.
THA
im a fucking .....well not now

Internode have rules.
Play by the rules Your fine.
Break one of those rules you'll be banned.
Its no perm banned, you prolly have a two week banning.
if your who i think you are, it was me who reported you stats padding. Blowing up the same dude who is support and a mate reviving him IS NOT ALLOWED ANYWERE.
if im wrong
http://games.internode.on.net/?page=app … od=appeals
give it two or three days.
Internode will never ban for no reason, BUT break one of the rules be ready to get dealt with.
These rules are specific to all Internode BF2 Servers.
These rules are in addition to Internodes General Rules, and Terms of Service for EA ranked servers.

These rules are in place to make the game enjoyable for everyone.

Spawn Camping
On some maps there are uncappable flags. These flags cannot be captured and are indicated on your map by a large red circle with a line through the center. These rules apply to the immediate base area around these flags. Anything outside of this is fair game.

- Players may engage the opposition at an uncapable flag with their kit weapons only. The use of aircraft or vehicles is not permitted.
- Aircraft may engage ground based Anti-Air weapons within an uncapable base - This includes ground and vehicle mounted AA. Failure to move out of the uncapable spawn after the AA has been destroyed will be considered spawn camping.
- A plane, or chopper, that has returned to the airspace above its uncapable flag is not protected under the spawn camping rule.

Disruptive Play
- Players found to be disrupting fair play will receive a ban.
- Disruptive play includes but is not limited to: Continual Commander mutiny voting, and blocking runways in armour for the sole purpose of destroying vehicles.
* Disruptive play will be at the sole discretion and judgement of the administrators.*

Sportsmanship
- If the uncapable base is the sole flag held sportsmanship is expected to be displayed and the base should be left alone to allow the other team to regroup in peace.
- "Stat farming" (eg. Kill/reviving) may be judged as bad sportsmanship by an Admin if it impedes play. Offenders will be removed from the server.
- Lack of sportsmanship may be considered Disruptive play.

Team Attacking
- Deliberately shooting another teammate on a FF server is against the rules.
- The deliberate destruction of a team mates vehicle or aircraft is a banable offence. This includes shooting planes and tanks as they appear at spawn and also if you are not going to reach the vehicle before another player.
- Placing yourself in a position that leaves no alternative for a team mate other than to TK is a banable offence. This includes, but is not limited to, deliberately placing yourself in front of, or on top of, a friendly vehicle.

Names
- Names must contain a minimum of 3 alpha-numeric characters
- Names must NOT contain abusive language, or derogatory comments.
- Names must not be coloured other than default or contain characters that alter the name in any way.

Stats Harvesting
- Stats harvesting is disruptive and is unfair on people who are trying to play in the spirit that the game was originally designed for. EA have endorsed the banning of all players caught harvesting.
- Players must not participate in any action not in the spirit of the game for the sole purpose of gaining stats.

Some General rules
- Be polite, wait your turn, offer rides, support your team mates.
- No offensive names or insulting and harassing other players.
- No exploiting game or map glitches and bugs.
- No spamming text messages or senselessly flooding the chat in any way.
- No deliberately blocking team mates movement in any way (i.e. Stopping in the middle of bridges etc.)
- No camping for planes or vehicles.
- No stealing, attacking, moving or destroying team mates vehicles.
- No using vehicles as a "taxis" to get to planes or helicopters. Walk or sprint.
- No team swapping during the middle of a round with the intent of being on the winning team.

Ban lengths for rule breakers
Sportsmanship: kick to 2 weeks
Tking and disruptive behaviour: 2 weeks to 3 months
Offensive behaviour: Up to 2 weeks
Stats harvesting: Permanent ban (Will not be lifted, ever).
Cheating: Permanent ban (Will not be lifted, ever).
Racism: Permanent ban (Will not be lifted, ever).
Note: Ban lengths will vary depending on the severity of the offence and repeat offenders can expect their bans to increase in length each time.

How to report a rule breaker.
The fastest way to contact an Admin is via IGN's IRC channel.
More details can be found here.

On the rare occasion that an Admin is not available take a few screenshots (Default key is Print Screen) of the offender in action and submit a trouble maker report.
These screenshots must clearly show the offenders in game name (tag), the offence committed, and the score board showing it is an Internode server. Please also include the time (CST - SA Time) AND date of the offence.

Report a trouble maker here.

A ban appeal can be made here.

Important: These rules are final and will not be open for debate. By choosing to play on Internodes servers you are indicating acceptance of these rules.

i know alot of these admins (no im not one of them, but i hate getting screwed by tools WHO CANT PLAY BY THE RULES) AND all of them have pathetic stats Because they spend all their time keeping other players happy By keeping trouble players moving on.
If you dont like these rules and live in AUS go to gamespace or gamearena and padd, baserape all you want there.
