does it say kicked or does it say banned?

If its banned it'll be a round ban for too much tking

If its a kick, more than likly you tried to join the two reserved slots, which kicks you to keep the spot free.

As detailed in the other thread :)

I've given up trying to connect, also says i've been kicked banned etc. I think its because the server keeps two slots open 62/64 and if one tries to connect its says your kicked/banned.

What , the idea that its a 64 man server, but only has 62 slots? So someone sees a server with 2 slots free, connects, then gets kicked and banned for no reason? Thats good is it?
Or am I misunderstanding :confused:

Apart from the banned bit which is wrong, yes it's good. Very good.

*edit* But not ideal.

It's a general message, in fact you've only been auto kicked.....to join you have to try when it says 61/64 which means 2 reserved slots plus 1 normal are available.

until Punkbuster kicks are working again its the kcik that has to be used.

Once PB kicks are back I can set a message like "You have tried to join a reserved slot, you are not a registered user thus have been disconnected"

Anyway the second server should be online tomorrow so more slots too fill :)

That is a fairly small point, reality is that that is the way it has to stay until EA/DICE bother to offer proper support for reserved slots etc.

That it says its a 64 man server but really its a 62 ??

It is a 64 man server, but the people paying for it are guaranteed a place, I don't see anything wrong with that at all. The server is often at 64/64 :)

The only issue is that there's currently no way to show that there are 2 reserved slots due to Dice not having a clue when it comes to todays server requirements :p

In this day & age, full admin gui's, reserved slots etc should come as standard :eek:
