    where do i report ranked servers?

    Short question. Where do I report ranked servers that are abusing the game?

    For the long story: I was playing on the ranked server with the IP: 205.177.13.66:16567. It was a 24/7 Karkand server. I could tell it was shady when I joined and 3 people were on one team and the rest were on the other. So I thought oh well... I knew I'd have to take care of things for myself, so I became MEC commander and jumped in the tank and started mowing people down. The other team was actually smart and would AT my tank so I'd jump out and kill a few more until I died and repeated unless a teammate got the tank, then I'd just hang back and command and pick off stragglers. So then they start getting organized and capturing lots of points, I jump in the tank and go to get one and right there is a c4ed vehicle that rams me and kills me. So I respawn in the tank and by then they've swarmed to the train station area. I sit back and I'm picking people off, making sure no one gets past the river. I see this mass of blimps on the UAV and I know they must be on top of that huge building near the train station which is impossible to get onto. I zoom in and sure enough, guys are on there. I start pounding it with artillery and they run inside the building. I've never been up there so I don't know how they did that. I think friendly fire was off so they probably used the exploit where you c4 yourself and launch a million miles in the air. Then they start shooting AT rockets THROUGH the building. They're not even on the roof anymore. They're just shooting through it somehow. So I back up and repair and just keep shooting stragglers. I really don't care that they're up there because I figure they have to come down sometime or lose. Then out of the corner of my eye I see some message that says something like "ADMIN: Maxor127 I'm reporting you for hacking and shooting through walls." And then I was banned. It happened so quick I didn't even get to read it.

    Anyways, I was obviously banned for no reason, especially when there were people who actually were using exploits. I don't know who the admin was, but I'm guessing he was one of the people on the other team. So I'm wondering where do I report this to and is it even worth reporting? I'm surprised C4 jumping hasn't been fixed yet and shooting through buildings can't be allowed and if the admin is complicit in it, shouldn't the server have its ranked priledges revoked? And I wouldn't care if I didn't get banned for playing fair just so the other team can win. Only problem is, I don't know how to get proof of it and even if I did, it's too late. And I didn't even get a chance to see who the admin was who banned me.

    And now I see the Sticky to answer my question after I post... oh well.

        I don't know... all I know is they were shooting AT rockets from the wall of about the second floor from the top if you go by the placement of the fake windows.

          I know the location...you just need one guy to get up using C4 then people can spawn on you...i'm sure it will be patched up some day

          I wouldn't worry about it because I doubt you could get many kills there anyway.

            Ea needs to have some kind of quality control, to surf the ranked servers randomly and to check out reports they recieve, to stop this kind of stuff. I really think that they dont really care how some people run thier ranked server as long as they dont go crazy and stat pad a zillion points into thier accounts.
            Thats a combination of at least 3 different ways Ive ran across to tip the balance of a balanced map. 1) first way is to just flat out use cheat codes, wall hacks, aim bots, etc. 2) stack the teams, put all the players with a high SPM on one team 3) fill about 25% of one team with absent players (the ones that go all round and have zero deaths and kills because thier not there). I myself think that thats pretty sad. Kinda like being a sniper and flying a jet to get your expert sniper badge, then bragging about how great a sniper you are. Just sad. . . . . . .Red

              The guys over at www.bf2rankedservers.com control alot of that, and alot of ranked servers. Make sure if you have a complaint about a ranked server, to report it there.

                Sounds very similar to this thread I read over at BF2RS, could it be the same server and same admin?

                  Different IP addresses, but it sounds like similar stuff.

                    Yeah, same thing, I also reported it too:



                    Along with another very strange issue.

                    I tried a private profile on my ranked server, set FF to 0 and got up there, you can indeed get inside the building and shoot out - there is some sort of box shaped room up there, with walls/sloped floor you can walk thru

                    Fingers crossed they get it fixed, although, it was sooo funny when the whole MEC was dead (no flags) apart from these two guys in the building - errrr.... spot the glitchers :laugh:

                    Scort.

                      ROFL. report yourself while your at it since you are violating EA's retarded rules of engagement by commanding and being in a tank.

                        That only applies if the local server rules state so.
                        Even then, it's only a kickable offence.

                        You seem to have a very strange idea about how the ROE works...

                          No, he's not, commanders can not be restricted from using vehicles. If they're ignoring their job as commander though, they can be kicked for that.
