Anyone have alink to the EA Ranked Server Rules, which lays out the conditions of an end user renting a server the rules they have to abide by...

I was on NRN server with a friend some 10 minutes ago on Sharqi Peninsula and we had taken the USMC Top Flag, The Hotel of whatever it is, my friend watched the ladder to the flag whilst I watched the stairs, with a few others running about up and down inside and out....I killed an NRN Member quickfox as he came though the inner door to the stairs, I was the top scorin gplayer with a mere 46 points only to see the message on screen Kicking ReaperUK to make room for admin, there was cleary 4 spaces left for an admin to join, my riend asked why I had been kicked and the reply was because I can....after a minute I rejoined the server not saying a word continued to play killing the same player at the same spot as before to find another message on screen banning ReaperUK, which totally sucks and just shows abuse of power for server admin, my friend and a few others stayed on the server, continuing to protect the flag in the sme way we had before, yet no one else got kicked or banned, this has happened many times before in other servers with my friends, but this is the first time it's happened to me..

Surely this is in breach of some ruling, it's surely not fairplay, just because the side was losing big style, they kick highest scoring players just so they can win..

Anyone else had this sort of thing happen.....

Wow thats dumb, and they are clearly to lazy to gain any skill to kill you the old fashion way.

I don't believe its illgeal for the admin to kick you, He is renting the server correct? He should be able todo whatever he wants.

I have never came across a rented server (as I live in New Zealand) I only stick to my ISP servers and a Gaming Arena called ICONZ... Each of them have 5+ servers each, So its more than enough to play on.

If you live in USA or UK there is plenty of servers to play on besides rented ones ;)

I think they don't have any rules, only that stat padding is disallowed.

Yeh you know that is one thing that is really turning me off against this game. I got tired of getting kicked and banned for no reason. At least Nova squads seem to have a little more respect for ya.

there are lots of complaints out there about Ranked Servers. The best way to avoid grief is to not even play in them. my squad's server collects stats and goes up on the website every 15 minutes. the only reason i see why someone would play on a ranked server is to get stats and to unlock weapons, medals, etc. our squad has our own server, commercial internet connection, and has figured out how to unlock weapons so we enjoy a great statistics page and unlockable weapons. in fact, the leader of our squad treats outsiders better then people in the squad! :confused:

Joint Operations did have a good squad community, but I hate the game so much now there's no turning back. Black Hawk Down is tempting though...
