Teams last night?

Rew

What was with the teams last night they were uneven for a good few of the games I played (around 10ish) with 4 or 5 extra on the US side not budgeing. Not just at the start either but halfway through some games.

The servers are seeing an influx of n00bs this week for some reason. N00bs are notorious for only playing as US man.

Auto-balance would work, but suck.

Still reckon the server needs a kick for 5mins idle time.

Rew

n00bs who dont speak english

Still there were enough others on to sort it out. (im bitter coz we got slaughtered a couple of times)

I agree

String

I stick with the team i get at the start, but if there uneven i swap over

if pb was put back on the server it would kick any one who is alt tabbed out fairly quick for losing key packets

this might be the way forward

Rew

After playing a few games of 1.1 I think the vote kick will sort it out (if it turned on?)

Woden

yeah at the same time today i was playing pirates and the vote kicks and map votes every few minutes where as annoying as hell.

all hail the mighty admin kick of muppets

suppafly

even though it is good sometimes, it get a abused alot i've seen and stupid n00bs put a kick poll up every 2mins:mad:

I don't find anything wrong with being out numbered as it gives me more killz and its good for practise, also i like to be a ranger and scalp lots of noobz with out being even hit. The thing is if you bring back PB then the server will lose most of its players and if that happens whats the point playing, just think PB updates just as you are about to reach your best and highest score ever bang your gone and so is the rest of the people from the server!! I think its better with more on one team than the other, just because it makes it harder for you and that if you can hold them back for about 6mins then your going to turn into a tank in a one on one, it makes your SPEED, REFLEX and ACCURACY get alot better. So stop complaining about to much players going against you because if you want to get better its a good way to go about it!!!

Basicly it stops people from cheating by checking their system for changes to the BFV files or for hacks like aim bots etc.

I havent had many isses with it (I was getting kicked with theupdate problem for a while) but others dont like it as they reckon it causes lag when it registers with the master servers and gets its updates.

Please if PB is switched on could you please make sure people dont get kicked for the losing key packets bug. This is one of the few servers that I dont have problems on.
AFAIK it has to do with choke settings on server and apparently if choke is set to 56k everyone including BB'ers get better performance.

So... in other words; if PB is turned on, you'll get kicked. Why, may I ask, should you fear getting kicked if your not cheating?
