Does this make you mad?

[Scort]

Just playing Operation Harvest in the WKU "We Kill You" German server, and was having a pretty good game, if I do say so myself

Had a score of almost 140, next highest score was mid 80s - this was through plenty of flag capping and spec ops missions, asset kills etc.

Down to the last 50 tickets (of 200 I think) and what happens..... boom! Kicked by punkbuster; the reason, to make room for admin!
How gutted was I!?! Well, not very, but those points would have helped me towards getting my last two unlocks :cry:

Just wondered how people feel when that happens to them, and also, how other admins decide who to kick?

I know when I'm admin, and I need to make room, I usually go for the players with minus scores, or low scores; as to me, these are people who aren't putting the effort in.

I can't help but feel that the WKU guys kicked me for more than just a random decision Heck, I think I killed a couple of their clan mates a bunch of times, one being the enemy commander.

Add your thoughts please....

I believe if you have played for at least 5 minutes (which you obviously had) then you still get the tickets. Am I wrong?

Cool :) I hope so, lol..... think I only need 9K, then it's P90 and... err... the other engineer one, for me :)

I was in the server for the past 3-4 games, so fingers crossed.

See, I learn something new every day

Your score is recorded real time by the server, and is uploaded at the round end. Even if you're kicked or disconnected, your records are still there, and you will get your points and awards.

Only thing that would prevent that is if the server itself crashed or restarted.

You still get the points if you get kicked or loose your conection. Nothing to be concerned about. Your all good. I don't think you get points though when the whole server crashes.

Re: Does this make you mad?

sounds like you were kicked so they could get the gold...and they give some BS excuse.......

i was under the impression it kicks the lowest score to make room for admin......i dont buy it.....

Re: Does this make you mad?

Well, I admin through BF2CC mostly, and you can simply right click a player and kick/ban them like that, you even have the set text to be displayed.

That's why I kinda had a feeling I was kicked for the highest score... but hey, if the above info is correct, I still get my points.

Completely off the original subject, just noticed I will have been playing for a year, come tomorrow:

Re: Does this make you mad?

As an admin I look for idle players first. Then negative score. I would say an admin wanted your gold medal.

Re: Does this make you mad?

I look for the most idle and lowest scored...then I join .

Re: Does this make you mad?

Why didn't you try to join back in? If i was kicked with that high score (which i have been) i would immediately try to rejoin when a spot opens.

Re: Does this make you mad?

It's a pity they don't kick the lowest scoring player, instead of the highest, when deciding who gets kicked off the lifeboat to make room for the Admin.

Re: Does this make you mad?

I'd be pretty mad too but I think you still get the points and wat not?!?!

Re: Does this make you mad?

I am 99%sure u LOSE your points...I personally lost badges and awards cause i either crash or server crashes.So i know for a fact you lose that.And if you lose those items then you can bet you lose points as well
