More servers with stupid rules.....when will it end

(Question is in the last paragraph if you don't want to read all this)

So I was playing on 40dds server today, and I get kicked for stupid reasons.

The first time I was single seat gunning. I had just joined the server, so I didn't have time to read every single rule that scrolled by. I didn't know seat switching was not allowed, so I did it. An admin said he would kick me....then he did like 10 seconds later. Didn't even ask me to stop doing it, just said not to then kicked. Fine....I understand that rule, so I won't do it again.

The next time the admin talked to me was when I was shooting a Cobra with my J-10. The map was Dalian Plant, he was at Maintenance building, and I started gunning him. He flew to Reactor tower, and I killed him when we got to the helipad. Admin told me I was not allowed to attack choppers on helipad, and I would be kicked if I did it again. Not allowed to attack choppers going to a heli pad?? Are they even allowed to restrict that?

So Im in the j10 still, and I am flying over my uncap (not allowed to attack uncaps btw) to resupply. F-35 comes behind and kills me. Im assuming the same rules would apply to the jet as the chopper right? Wrong. Apparently you can kill jets that are resupplying/repairing over uncaps, but you can't attack choppers at ANY helipad for any reason.

Alright, so my question is, are there any restrictions EA has put in place as to how admins are allowed to run their server? Things like restricting airspace and attack areas like this would be the major question I had. It's annoying when servers use these rules and people just use them as a crutch to avoid getting killed. Basically it allows me to keep my chopper close to a helipad, and every time I get shot, just get closer to the pad and I won't be allowed to get attacked.

There are other servers and/or mods out there...

I was banned from there for soloing and refusing to stop. It works out better for both of us, to be completely honest... I don't make the mistake of entering their poor server, and they don't have to cry about me killing them repeatedly.

One more thing: I noticed their hypocrisy as well, and made damn sure to rub it in their face. Apparently, they don't like being told the truth. I told them that I would continue soloing and attacking them if they were spawning/resupplying because that's my job, and no arbitrary rule will convince me to stop doing that, so they might as well ban me.

Be happy you don't have to deal with them anymore.

orl?! I did not know that.....not the point. The point of the thread was the last paragraph.

@Sloi. Ya, I got the final kick after I kept pointing out the jet/chopper rule. Didn't make sense at all. I wasn't even talking back. I just kept asking questions and saying that I wanted to better understand their reasoning. "Smacktard" was the reason for my last kick I didn't get banned, but I definitely wont go back.

Pff its better than the old 702 Recon no fly zone rule. I would've liked that server otherwise, but that was just stupid. L1S is the best server out there IMO. Some great guys there.
But to answer your question about all EA cares about rules wise are kit/vehicle restrictions.

[sava700]

any server with a rule about no solo chopper flying is violating the TOS IMO...its a weapon they are not allowing me to use plain and simple.

If EA didn't want you to do it they would have fixed it.

[Sloi sauce]

Good luck making them understand that. They have boobs for brains, remember?

40 dds has the most immature admins ever.
They are cowards hiding behind the admin panel.
Its a waste of time playing there. They wont change.

DO NOT go to 40dds server


ever. :salute:

rofl, I had my run in with that clan a loooong time ago. It was actually my first thread created complaining about a server. Banned from them for attacking over carrier then questioning them.

rent a server and run your own.

[=98=]

Renting a server get's EA money

Closing a server get's EA no money

You do the maths

If the rules are really that bad, the server would be empty.

I don't have a problem with the no soloing rule as some a-hole who just flies the chopper out of the main at the beginning of the round without even trying to get a gunner is not a team player in any way. It's just a wasted asset, sure some guys can solo well, but 80% of the time a soloer will lose in a chopper vs chopper battle to a guy with a gunner. Why is he entitled to hogging both seats on the chopper more than someone else taking one of them? I don't as much of a problem with soloing if no one is around to gun, but a pilot should still always look for a gunner if he can.

I hate that server :laugh: everybody that is in that clan is sooooo bad.

[Rugerdog]

Yeah crappy server, I had a friend who used to be in that clan and hated it so much. Not to mention the fact that they almost all are really bad players.

Dogfighting above uncap is allowed even if 1 jet thinks he is safe to repair :) Attacking starting jet from uncap is not allowed. And NO attacking helis on helipad is called NO helipad cleaning rule :)
