kicking for not squadding up

**TACOFART** · 07-22-08, 04:59 PM

i think it is rather unfair for a admin to tk a person then boot the person he punished for his tk. i am referring to {CLR} ryanbatc specifically. i do not think u need that type of person as an admin if he chooses to use his authority poorly. i also feel that kicking people that joined the server after the server locks all squads is a bunch of crap. at some point the server doesnt allow u to join or create a squad after the round has started.

Look down 2 forums and you will find an Admin Abuse claim forum. I think this is the last time I'm going to post like this too. If people can't read, fuck em.

First, he is not even an admin. Second, if you are not part of a squad you can fully expect to be kicked every time. If memory serves me correctly BF2 allows for 9 squads. I was not there, but I would bet that not all 9 were created and locked or full, which means you had the option to join or create your own.

actually u are wrong i joined mid round and i was not able to join or create a squad, which as i stated is kind of bs reason to kick. u cant kick if people cant join a squad.

Then you should have told the admin that you couldn't, to them it looks like you are unsquaded which means the kick was right.

Are you done whining like a little bitch yet? If so, there is a proper place for an Admin Abuse claim. If you aren't done bitchin', then stop it and actually try doing something productive.

Well, I guess we have a couple of options here, so I will lay them out for you. EVERY time you join the server you need to create or join a squad. I do understand there are a few reasons you might not be able to such as; you change teams, you try to join while dead, the magical squad bug. Only 1 of these is out of your control, and the squad bug usually only happens after you have played a round, not when you first join.

With that being covered you can either say ok, I will make sure to squad up next time, or if I am having a problem I will ask for help to keep from getting kicked again. You can say ok, I understand the admin has no way of knowing why I'm not in a squad, so I will just make sure I do so in the future. Or, you can continue to ridicule the admin, and see how that turns out for you. The power is in your hands. Choose wisely young grasshopper.

And let me give you some explanation from what I have gathered from the admins that were handling the server while you were on. First, you were kicked at 4:36 for a FTK. One admin witnessed this, and kicked you for it. You were then kicked again at 4:49 for not being in a squad by a separate admin. If you tried to join the squad when you first logged back in you are correct you would not be able to due to the fact that the server views you as dead. However, once you spawned in you would have been free to create or join any squad that was not full or locked. Any other questions?

As for everyone else replying I would respectfully ask that you not pile on unless you have something useful to ad, just so we can keep this Civil.

i didnt tk anyone someone tked me and i punished them for then i was kicked when i got back on the server i couldnt join a squad and was kicked again. so how is that fair and how is it that i can be punished for tking when i was the recipient of the tk. im just trying to follow your logic here as i play alot on ttp servers.
