Punkbuster bites! Kicked for high ping of 20?

Re: Punkbuster bites! Kicked for high ping of 20?

Heres the crap:

No. It is NOT THE ADMINS! I'm not a retard (although some who know me call me that occasionally). It does it on our clan servers and all servers. I get in the game long enough to spawn once, appx. 30 seconds, then kicked!
It freakin' sucks. I check my ping before it does it and it is always below 30; mostly below 20.
It clearly states "Punkbuster kick due to high avg. ping"

Regardless of what it says, that's what it is doing. It is definitely NOT my connection, as BF2142, and other games work fine with very low pings. I have isolated it to the game itself, just not what part of the game. It will kick me hard wired and wireless, every server, all the time.

It has to be something with punkbuster,


...just trying to get you to see its not PunkBuster, but you didnt seem to want to hear that. Maybe next time you should read your own posts, Sherlock.

I signed on using a cingular air card on a 1mb/sec connection and actually stayed on a server for a good while, when before it was kicking me. If it works on this, it will definitely work at home.

And if doesn't work at home that should tell you that there is a problem with your connection.

You sure you're 39 with a response like that?

Maybe you should take a minute or two and read up on how Punkbuster actually works. You go on the right server and you can get a Punkbuster kick for being obnoxious, and the kick message will still look like a PB kick. Now are you still going to tell us that PB kicked you.

PB provides a set of tools for server admins, and when used that is how an admin/server kick shows in the players kick message.
