And that's exactly why you were kicked. I kicked you, and I did it from out of game. I had just gotten home from work, and logged in while I browsed the forums. I don't care what your name is, I don't care what kind of smack you're laying down (mostly, no racial slurs), I don't care what you're flying, I don't care what your score is. If you're unsquadded, you're subject to be kicked. It's right there in the marquee, and in my warnings, and in the server rules.

Next thing i know, i was kicked for not being in a squad.
I was in a squad at the time. I always squad up, but there (as I could tell) was a bug. Because as the map started, I was already in squad 1 and couldn't leave it.

We've all had the squad bug before. If you have a problem like that, LET THE ADMIN KNOW. We are not telepathic, and we can't see if someone is or is not bugged from CC. All we have to go on is: a long-time player, who knows the rules, with a long time on the server, unsquadded multiple minutes into the round with no indication he's bugged, ergo you get the boot.

BUT! That was only an excuse to kick me.

No, never. Fuck you if you think that an admin EVER kicks as an "excuse". They would be out of here so fast the door wouldn't know what hit it. EVERY action has to be justifiable and the admin is ALWAYS ACCOUNTABLE to his or her superiors for each and every one.

At the time I was kicked there were MULTIPLE people not in squads. During the time (1 min) I needed to wait, the lowest the server was at was the 59/60 due to me being kicked. Thus, nobody else was kicked.

No, you were it. There was one other person unsquadded who had been connected for ~30 seconds. After you were kicked, one more person joined to fill your spot, 60/64. You were it.

Upon re-entering the server I looked at the side I was on and there were still 5 people not squaded up and I typed up my explination (without being an ass about it) and let them know I had been bugged and Sorry. (the sorry just so they would know I wasn't just talkin smack)... I then told everyone that There are 5 people not squadded up... KICK THEM... of course there were no kicks.

Just so we're all on the same page:

Is that you at the end questioning the actions of the admin and trying to tell him how to do his job? And this is you NOT being an ass? You know perfectly goddamn well things like this are never discussed in game, not even word fucking one. That's what the forums are for. I suggest you check that kind of attitude at the door.


Nearly 900 hours of play time...
42 hours on TTP alone...
A member of a resident clan...
Connected for almost an hour...
Multiple warnings issued...
Multiple minutes passed with no explanation and no action...

And you're going to sit there and tell me you were abused? You've played this server FAR TOO LONG to be able to say you don't know that EVERY ROUND at team swap you lose your squad, and the FIRST THING you should be doing when the round starts is getting into a squad. If you see you're still in a squad without having joined one explicitly, you have a squad bug, and just say so in the chat. There have been multiple times in the past where people have mentioned it (even some HRD guys), and they get through just fine. We are not here to kick people just because we can, we do it to keep things running smoothly.

For what it's worth, I apologize for kicking you while you were bugged, but I completely fail to see where you have been abused at all in this entire thing.

Draco

As I don't have a reserved slot on BF2 yet I tend to not disconnect when I get the trapped in squad bug. When I do get it I send a message in all chat with spaces in front of it every time explaining my situation, and do my best to be a useful smurf. I've never been booted afterwards, but wouldn't complain if I was. If the admins kicked all unsquaded players at once, then people who had just connected or left squads would be included... That's not done.

The admins here do a damn fine job, and I wouldn't doubt for a second that you were kicked solely for being unsquaded given the circumstances. Just let 'em know next time man!

Hood there is no admin abuse here. You were bugged and that is that. You should have just come back in game and went about your business. Telling the admins how to do their job is bad form.

I don't see how it is an admins fault, it is something that just happened through no fault of anyone. Your response in chat though is not so good, I have seen people banned for that because that is not acceptable ingame on this server as far as I know. So I think you ended up lucky.

I don't wanna hear another squad bug Excuse ever. You know it, when you are squad bugged. Disconnect and Reconnect, before we do it for you.

You are a resident member here. Never an excuse as to why you are not in a SQUAD.

Also, I think you insulted just about every admin here.

No excuses, if you are unsquaded, You will be removed and the Admins have been instructed to do so.

Anyhow...
There were others not squadded. thats the only reason i posted this. Thinking it was unfair.
I've NEVER had one of those FUCKING (just wanted to say again, thanks Draco) squad bugs before. In almost 900 hours i've never had one. My appologies if it has caused any disruption or problems. It was new to me.
Hope you all have an awesome day.
(no i wont be reading any further replies to this).
Thanks all, enjoy. :) see yaz on the servers.

NOTE: I would NEVER insult or presume to insult an admin, no matter what. That's why I posted here. You all do an awesome job and the server is great. Please: Even Draco, don't think i meant to insult anyone. I only posted what I saw from my end. Not yours.

Not our fault if you are Not in a SQUAD, rather it is your first time or not.

Also, we constantly kick players that are not squaded up, so don't say we didn't kick anybody else, because we do, all day long and all night long.

Coming in here with your panties in a wad because an Admin did his job and removed you, to tell us you were abused is absurd and dissapointing. You just waltzed up in the Admin abuse thread and stated that you were singled out and abused.

Not a favorable thing to do to the Community that supports you, your clan, the admins and the servers.

Resolved.
