ah i see. reason i ask is because the server was lagging really bad today and many people were over 400ping and i told them to leave but obviously they don't listen. so iwasn't sure if they would get auto kicked or not.

lol, zilla, shit has happened before. eg: today massive lag, all 999ping for like 3mins

The servers should be ok now. I started a log on the server and forgot to turn it off. It did provide us the info we were looking for but also filled up the hard disk. This was causing all the trouble for you guys. We fixed it today, you all should be ok untill Red or I come up with another crazy idea :).

[=GDIC=huiyu22]

:o crazy ideas...?

[Smaka]

We actually should have an auto kick when people have over 300-350?
Deacent idea? Or CRAZY? lol.

The game only checks for the pings when a player connects. Once he is in there are no further checks. Its not very difficult to develope a software which could auto kick based on the status command in Rcon. But me being me, I don't kick people very often, may be 3-4 in a year and that too if some clan members get desperate. I would love if you guys would be bit more creative, a ping spike here and there don't make or break clans. There are enough clan servers hosted on shared servers which go nuts the moment there is airstrike but I still see 40+ constant players on them. Think of something that will take us there instead of how can we kick, ban, slap, spank other players. Believe me there are times when even I think about ban campers, ban snipers, ban lean glitchers, ban hoppers, ban runner, ban floppers and everything other the game can do. If we every did that, we'll have only 2-3 sorry souls playing on our serves. This is getting to be a long post but public players also contribute heavily to a success of a game servers hence they deserve a due consideration.

I'm afraid I'm with Gand on this, we can't just have a ping-turrent kickin people the moment they pass the limit or piss us off. I admit, I myself have my annoyances with people who do such annoying things..but it's all part of the game.

[=GDIC=huiyu22]

and the ping-turret goes kick kick kick kick kick kick kick. and yeah, gand and big is right about this...BH2 from 20 to 30 something now and BH from 150 to 254, need some people to come in so i can keelz them o.o
