My friend and I were playing on a server run by "Team Immortal". It was a map running Karkland and Sharqi 24/7 and the IP was 64.34.185.32

Basically we were trying to win, not nessisarily gain points. We were in a squad together playing team MEC on Karkland and we decided to hang back and defend the main base and the train accident. In prior rounds the American team had kept beating us and we were considering our win/loss ratio so we just wanted to win. Our team was playing like idiots so we just decided to forgo the points and get some wins. My friend grabbed the tank and started driving it around up near the bases. I blew up the bridge so the other team was forced to either swim or go across the water on the far side. My friend hung around that far side area. In the first round we waited at the start and within 1:30 into the game guys started coming from over that wall and across the water. Then they tried taking an APC over the bridge but she was blown and I kept C4ing their vehicles or laying mines near the railroad track until my budy could get there with the tank and finish them off. Then we would repair the tank and prepare for the next group of guys. We won 3 rounds straight. In the third round using MEC we used the same tactic. All of a sudden my budy gets kicked for excessive teamkilling. I asked why he got kicked cause he hadn't had a single teamkill and there was no response. Then I asked again in all capitals and I got kicked.

We both entered back into that server and just kept quiet. We were put on the MEC team again and held to the same strategy because the rest of our team wasn't playing as squads and we'd lose forsure. Within 15 minutes we were kicked again for teamkilling. We didn't have any teamkills since being back in that game...the first time we may have had 1 but I doubt we even had that because most of our guys were up at that first flag like in almost every karkland war. We got pissed off and went back in the game and started asking why we got booted. One guy from Ti said it was because we weren't using the tank and just sitting in it...but he wasn't on our team so what should he care? In fact we were using the tank and had killed at least 8 vehicles and numerous troops each round while defending those bases. In anycase for asking that question we got kicked again. We logged in again and started questioning again...didn't swear once. Some guy named [Ti]Wildcat told us we should just shut up and play. So we did again and within another 10 minutes we got kicked again for teamkilling. At that point we were pissed and just kept logging in and typing messages about getting kicked to the Admins telling them they were losers and couldn't beat us. Again...we didn't swear at all, just typed messages.

Truth of the matter is that all the [Ti] guys were on the american team and they couldn't beat our two man squad to take our rear base. It seems that pissed them off and they just wanted us off the server.

In anycase, that really ticked me off that we would get kicked for winning. I don't like it when admins abuse their power. I understand it's their server but I'm not a hacker and I don't do many of the things people consider cheap in the game...ie base raping, M203ing, tank whoring. My friend and I were literally getting 20-34 points a round for defending that base when those [ti] guys were cleaning up tank whoring on the other end and our own team was getting more points. Then when we actually did beat their tanks with our own kits and strategy so they kick us! Unbelievable. It's a day later and I'm still pissed off so I just felt like posting about them. It was Team Immortal and I think the guy kicking us was [Ti]Wildcat...he was the only one who responded to our questioning anyway...it could have been someone else.

Oh yeah, I hate it when that happens.

It's happened to me twice: Once, for killing the server host, who had been spawn camping and getting a lot of kills. I snuck around, flanked him, and in 30 seconds I was booted and banned.

Another time, I was just on a roll. I had a total score of 187 on karkand, without using a tank or anything. Soon enough, the opposing team started issuing kick votes, and after a few tries, I was kicked. I REALLY hope I still got the points for that...D:

I agree, that's completely gay, but it happens all of the time. Once in Karkand, I was just driving around in the MEC Apc and running the other team over. That was it, just running them over. If they are stupid enough to stand in the middle of the street, why not run them over? Anway, after about 16 road-kills, the admin kicked me. Why? I guess because I was having too much fun.

I've played there before - all I can say is stay away from clan servers - I have a lot of kicks and bans from clan servers because I am a good pilot. Have yet to come across a fair administrator that has spoken up about something - usually they just kick and ban and don't ask questions or give an opprotunity to defend yourself.

Here's a tip, don't play on any servers running a map called Karkland...  I'm just kidding.  Every once in a while you'll run into a server like that.  Life goes on.  Don't play on the Kentucky Fried Server.  To quote them "We ban blacks, jews, and muslims".  They also kick you if... you are having a good round.

me and my friend were playing at an internet cafe and we got into the helicopter. we dont usually because neither of us are very good, but we decided to just have a fun round and not care about points. we're sitting on the ground and all of a sudden the admin (also commander) speeds up in an apc and begins to shoot us. my buddy takes off and i begin repairing, and about 10 seconds later we are both kicked.

later that day we re-joined the server because it was low-ping. he was still there. he kept swearing at everyone for taking vehicles that "weren't theirs". so we hunted him down and started to shoot his APC. he killed both of us and we punished him. he got out of the APC to revive us, my friend shot him. then he friend revived him, and i shot him. almost immediately we were kicked again, and i know it was childish, but so was he. and the shit-fit he threw was funny as hell.

I fell ya, I was playing in a server, and I was mostly in the top two at the end of every round, then when a map change came with jets, I got the jet, and got kicked, to make room for a clanmate! ha ha, that kinda sucks, no lag on that server too.

Been kicked playing there before, but it's low ping for me, so I go back when there's no assweeds around. My friend and I always have a two-man locked squad, can't stand the other people who join squads just to get squad member time and don't actually do anything for the team.

I see this happen often. Best thing you can do is just go to another server. Don't bother arguing with them. I've been kicked/banned numerous times for owning the other team. One server that comes to mind is LRRP. Don't you dare own there, or you will find yourself banned. I swear some people just shouldn't be playing this game. WAHHH YOU'RE OWNING ME SO I'LL KICK YOU WAHH. If they're not kicking you, they're calling you out for hacking. Freakin pathetic. Get a life you losers. It's not my fault YOU SUCK!

My 5 cents:

Play on Official EA Servers only. Make EA Pay. And let the idiots pay for the ranked servers themselves....

Note to EA: Don't get me wrong on the "Make EA Pay" thingy. It's only because those ranked servers do cost a lot of money... And I don't see the point in making more money out of such a game. Give it out at the costs you have or for free (just like you do right now and I love it.... ).

Cheers,

Sysfried

PS: Another Note to EA: Don't ban me... I purchased SF!!! ;-)

PPS: Hell I'm in an ironic mood right now! >:-)

Ah. I have no problems with that. I only play on ranked servers run by well-reputed game communities, especially the battlefield.no servers. No clan control, no smacktards in the lead. Sure, there has been a couple of asshole admins involved in the battlefield.no servers at one point, but they got kicked out of there like a black man from an NRA meeting.

Sometimes I wonder what the criteria for running a ranked server is though. I think it's down to paying the right people at EA, but I'm not sure. Someone enlighten me. Why do proven smacktards get to run ranked servers?

Cause they can fork out the dough every month.  And there to busy working to get good at the game, so they feel inferior when a real player gets on.

Because only smacktardes pay EA to run a server after paying for a buggy game lol

Anyway not all admins are smacktards  I met some cool admins.

Not all clan servers or admins are bad, but there are way too many that are.  One of the few things EA did really well with the patches was listening to us and adding Favorites to the server browser. Now I can just quickly go to the 3-4 servers that I found and like and not chance the rest of them.

I got my first BAN from a server because of a loony admin who though that a single engineer in a tank couldn't control the back 3 chineese bases on Dragon Valley (and because apparently low flying transport helicopters are immune to tank fire and cannot be shot down , especially within a flag capture radius).

Its ok that happens to me all the time, the funniest thign I've seen... the admins kicked me and i just kept whoring the cobra which I actually do alot. And i continued to just demolish the entire other team with it. They actually changed the map, to a smaller map that didn't have the helicopters to stop it ... i was just sittn there laughing... so i just started raping them with a tank.  Could of been the funiest thing ever, I asked an admin why he changed it and he said because his team wanted to do a mini practice... I was like yea k buddy sure..

The only thing I will kick/ban for on our server is tk'ing and excessive swearing, etc. We only have 4-5 people with admin access so it never gets out of hand.

The IP's are in my signature. Try them out some time.

I've played on that server before, but I've never had that problem. Whenever I take up a good point to defend(like on top of the building by the square in Karkand with PKM) no one ever gets too pissed. I'd say if you're having that problem, play on a different server. There are plenty of others that play just those maps.

Damn I guess no one plays as a engineer on that server. isn't a engineer repersented as a blackman in BF2?

It wasn't the 24/7  antivirus server was it? One of the admins there (most are good) starting swearing and threatening to kick people for taking the helicopter in fushe pass. He actually kicked a couple of people. I was on the other team. He actually got the cobra. Then I swatted him out of the sky with the chinese tunguska (I forget what its called). Then he was pad camping the chinese attack heli, but I got him with an eryx...he was REALLY far away, I had to hold the reticle on him for a good 10 count.

So my buddy and I get the attack heli. we make a hell of a team in it. We shot the cobra down with it 17 times in a ROW.

He stopped flying after that round.

I have to say that the servers that I normally go to seems decent.  I have not had any problems with the clan servers I have frequented, cept 1 small incident of supposed stat padding.  There used to be alot of TKing for vehicles in one of the servers, but that seems to have slacked off.

I just go in there to have fun, and if I am in the top 3 going against the server renters, that makes it funner.  If not, oh well.  There is always another time.

But, if the server is shitty, go to another.  How many servers are there out there again?
