    Obviously you can't. Commanding from the bomber seat it similarly ridiculous. The bomber is a devastating element on Kubra, for instance. No sense taking up a seat that could be utilised by someone who can bomb full time. It ticks the pilot off too, because the less the bomber kills, the less kill assists he gets.

      a lot of the rules they made are stupid. I really wish for once they would let the community run the way we want it to, not the way they think we want it to

        Kicking a commander for being in a vehicle is a violation of rule 1.5.

        There is a mutiny button there for a reason, use it.

          Only thing I see wrong with it is you're depriving someone else of being a bomber and helping the team not to mention the pilot. If you’re commanding you’re not bombing.

            as its already been pointed out the mutiny button is almost useless.

              Yea really good point. However, in my defence it was my friend who was flying and he had no passenger for the first 1/4 of the round so when he died I jumped in to passenger cause I wanted air time..I am a terrible pilot...

              And as you may know as a commander you are really uaving and spotting guys say 70% of the time and the rest you are waiting for things to reload..give or take..maybe you are watching their movements too..So I was filling that 30% with laser guided missle time.

                Do ea have any rules on who an admin kicks off his server to make way for a member of that server?

                or are commanders exempt from being kicked to make way for server members?

                  In my 454 hours of BF2 I have NEVER seen a successful mutiny.

                  EVER.

                    Commanders are NOT exempt from being kicked/banned. As an admin, I consider commanders who fly disruptive to gameplay and will be warned/kickd/banned accordingly.

                        I love how people feel commanders should be laying down somewhere doing nothing but commanding. If that was the intent then the commander would not have a avatar in the game. I am a fighting commander, which means I defend 1 flag and my assets. I dont fly and I agree it would be very hard to fly and command. I have never had a problem with people feeling I was not doing my job, and I help the team by defending a back flag and my assets. Be a fighting commander not a flying commander. Defend and repair your assets dont drop supplies on them. A commander should not be leading attacks, he should be guarding the back door.

                          Or we could just post here instead of signing up for a different forum just to complain. :p

                          Seriously, this is an absurd rule. Mutinies don't work due to numbers of people who don't care, don't notice, or have voting turned off. Admins pay for the ranked servers, so surely they can kick idiots. Flying a jet when commander = idiot.

                          This is true lunacy!

                              There was just a clarification posted in a revised ROE.
