Strange Happenings On Server

**TacoDave** · 09-27-14, 06:39 PM

Twice in the last 45 minutes, in the middle of the game I have been disconnected and the message at the bottom of the server page says in the red bar "Error, you have been kicked." I have no problems rejoining but trying to understand what this error is and why am being kicked? My ping is in the low 40's.

If no reason is given then it is most likely a reserve slot. EA made it to where a reservist will kick a nonreservist but with no message or way to implement one.

And we're getting more and more reservists, so if you don't have one, it's going to be more and more likely to get kicked.

We need to add a sticky to this forum about the reserve slot kicks. This might reduce confusion. It may also make sense to update the server message warning about it.

Is there an MOTD when you enter the server? Like our Source based servers? Perhaps a message like, "If you don't have a reserved slot, you could be kicked at any time." in the MOTD, would solve this.

There is a Message of the Day when you're joining, but Battlelog by default loads maps in the background. Anyone joining the server won't actually see the MOTD until their second map, by which time it might be too late.

I think the motd reads: welcome to teamplayergaming.com battlefield 4 server. Proudly Guyver free since 2013.

Thanks for clearing that up. Never been kicked before so this was unexpected. Too bad the message says ERROR instead of kicked for reservist. Might be time to get a reserve slot set up.

have a quick question. I had a BF2142 reserve slot back when the server was Texas Team Players. Do I need to go through the process again or can I just register?

***IF YOU'RE ALREADY AN "APPROVED RESERVIST" YOU DON'T NEED TO REQUEST AGAIN. JUST GO SIGN UP USING THE MENU LINKS***

If you have access to the reservist tab you should be able to just go ahead and sign up.
