BF2S Forums Lame servers/server admins

There are countless threads up that go something along the lines of:  I was playing on such-and-such server, and I was just playing the game minding my own business, maybe attacking an uncappable for a second, or killing an admin, when I got kicked/banned for doing that...

And I, like everyone else on these forums, sigh and wonder why you saw fit to waste your time posting it up here, when you could just as easily never play there again and save yourself the trouble.

That said, my reaction is probably one that stems from the fact that I usually play on the same few servers daily, and don't really have to worry about playing on places with unfamiliar people or rules.  But sadly, I too have succumbed to the rigors of the Battlefield, and now must vent on you poor souls.

The past few nights I have tried a few servers that I don't normally play on, and all I can say is this: if you pay for your own clan server, sure, make the rules, and enforce them...but having a clan server SPECIFICALLY to stack your clan on one side, and to enforce the rules only when it's beneficial for your stacked team, seems to be the norm outside of my sheltered gaming experiences, and I think it's FUCKING SAD...

I join CantStopGaming and see that one of the rules is: "No camping uncapturable spawns if other spawns can still be captured".   Thats the rule as it is clearly stated:  NO CAMPING UNCAPS, fine, easy enough to deduce that I shouldn't set up shop in the enemy base and rape it if I want to keep playing on here. 

A buddy and I are USMC on Oman, and the Cobra was in use, so we hop in a dunebuggy and head for the MEC chopper because we just saw it crash....we get to the area by the helipad and I see 3 people standing, waiting for it.   What do I do?  What anyone playing a GODDAMN WAR GAME would do...I ran over 2 of the guys, and my buddy hops out and shoots the last one.  Then we hop in the Mi-28 and, as we fly off, we get hit by a SRAW...so I shoot that guy and the guy next to him as we fly OUT OF THE BASE.

We had barely reached the water before we were both kicked....the admin's message was VERY mature:  "Wat JOO doin spendin so much time in our uncap????" (exact quote, although there might have been some nifty alternating caps on some of those letters so I know just how l337 that admin was)

The "wat JOO" part of the message assured me that only the most mature and articulate members of CantStopGaming's superb server have admin rights.  I'm glad a fucking 14 year old with admin powers is dictating how I can play my game.  Yeah, sure, the rule says no "camping"....so is making a surgical strike that lasted all of 15 seconds total, then leaving the uncappable voluntarily without so much as even being warned, "camping" it?  Obviously not. 

By that same token, if one were to sneak in to blow up artillery, and while trying to leave the base encountered some infantry and killed them, BUT STILL LEFT THE BASE AFTERWARDS, then they would be subject to being kicked for "camping"? 

I'm not looking for sympathy, and its not like I'm gonna waste my time reporting "admin abuse" or some nonsense.  I just think its sad how people get kicked for providing the slightest bit of competition, and now I can relate to all the other poor bastards on this forum who have similar situations arise.  Hopefully when 2142 comes out all the little shitheads that are taking over this game this summer will run along and buy EA's next patchwork debacle.

All I know is CantStopGaming can look forward to a lot of real-deal spawn rapage from yours truly in the next few days, until they ban my ass for something that actually breaks one of their precious little rules of engagement.  War is hell you little bitches.

Killerpings, a server provider based in Chicago, is conducting its own investigation into the bfroe.com site and all of its features.

They believe that EA does not properly investigate complaints from players and instead, close the server and take the proceeds.

I was once called a Faggot by a player because i told him to refrain from using profanities on the server that i was administrating. He then went on to call the two other admins (the ones who pay for the server) idiots and fools for letting a Faggot like me administrate.

I banned the guy from the server for 20 days for his actions.

Soon after, he appeared on the private teamspeak that the admins use. I was the only person on teamspeak at the time so, at first, he refused to talk. Then he started talking when i had left and told a friend of mine that he was going to complain about me because im 'a faggot'.

So, he had abused the server rules, EAs rules, abused administrators AND managed to hack into a private teamspeak server.

He then reported me to EA on the bfroe.com site and i got my first and final warning for 'not administrating in the correct manner'.

scrotums, such as that guy, are ruining this game for everybody and something needs to be done about it!

GameArena BF2 #08 [Inf] Ranked

Don't play there if you're American unless you want to talk to a bunch of American hating Australians.  Pretty much everyone in there hates the U.S. so beware.

Well, I thank you for not stooping to their very very low level.

We join Australian servers because most of the time Australians aren't complete arogant jackasses like other people.  Also because the U.S. servers tend to suck ASS because most of them for some reason lag a lot.

GA 8?

GA guys are fucking crazy, don't go near them (sorry Flecco)

It's not so much crazy as it is retarded it seems.

I play GA 8 a lot. I have never once seen American bashing. Although, you're likely to have a terrible ping, which may piss people off.

Fact is the only decent servers we have in Australia are GameArena and Internode, so the turnaround in players in those servers is huge. Every player in Australia players in both GameArena and Internode servers I have no doubt.

Ya I play on NZ servers for the same reason


I play on GA all the time - and thats complete bullshit - Ive never seen anything anti-american typed

you mustve been special - dont translate people not liking you to: your whole country or my whole country thx

you also have to keep in mind that Aussie like to 'take the piss' - so if your crying about anti americans theyll all start stirring you with anti american slogans - just to make you cry - they dont really feel that way

although its getting tough to stay friends when your so determined to make war with the whole planet - we've certain payed our due in blood for the friendship


and while were there - NO YOUR FUCKING RETARDED DICKHEAD

YOUR RIGHT DONT PLAY THERE ASSHAT - ONE LESS LOSER - CHI CHING

I've never play with that many Aussies before so I had no idea they like to do the anti-american bullshit.  Thanks for the heads up, that's the last time I EVER play in an Australian server.  I said I was from the U.S. and they give me a whole bunch of shit about it so it wasn't about anything else in case that's what you were thinking.

So, um, how did they know you were American? Did you go in there shouting it out, or what? Were people just shouting OGM AMERICA <3 PENIS at random intervals? Just seems wierd, is all.


Can't say I've ever seen any nationality bashing in my time on the GA servers, though. Even when playing on the SF servers with loads of foreigners, nobody seems to mind.

Maybe they were like:"what with the ping were you from"????

It was on ghost town and i was doing ok with the Hind, he warned me for vehicle whoring and not sharing. I had not died that round so i was still on my first round in the air, how the fuck is that whoring?

Eventually i end up killing him a few more times and then he kicks me. I come back, see a heli that nobody is using, get in it, attack the enemy, kill him, he bans me.

Can i report this coward run server to EA? I'm fucking pissed.
