Banned? - Jan 18 2012, 19:07

Good evening all....

Metro/B2K server

Just had a nice PB perm ban for some unknown reason on your server. I started as Support with no mortar, sniped a little and then ended being an engineer and killed 3-4 players and then got banned mid game.

"Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster. Stated reason: PunkBuster permanent ban issued on this Game Server for player 'Joskyn' ... Prior Kick/Ban"

There was no chat from me, no sniper camp fest or mortar whoring. I do like playing on your servers, but getting a perm ban for actually NOT doing any of the above is a bit tough....

A lift of the ban would be appreciated as I said, I do like playing on your servers.

Many thanks in advance for your consideration.

Hello,

It's in the server messages that if you are glitching on buildings you will be banned.  That includes spawning on anyone up there and not getting off right away.

2 of us were up there getting names and every person that was up there was happily shooting down at people.  I warned everyone in the server several times to get off or be banned, if you didn't see that then I can't help it.

You are only banned from that server.  If you're a regular on the server we will consider lifting it, providing you do not do it again. 

We try to maintain clean and fair servers and being on top of these building is very unfair on the other team.

Thanks for this.

I didn't see your messages as I turned off messages because I'm well "£%£"%£$% off with seeing all the !Punish, RPG noob, sniper noob, 320 noob, SMAW noob, USAS noob, noobie effing noobie doo every blooming nano second! etc. :D

I'm assuming that when BFN players on Bazaar doing the same by A (Square) will get the same?

Thanks for the consideration and I hope I can get back on soon... 8)  ;D

We ban MAV abusers on all maps.  It's used to gain access to parts of the map you cannot be killed, especially on Metro. 

I believe that DICE is meant to be stopping people from being able to jump on MAVs on the next update, whether that is true is another story.

Respect is earned not demanded!

For the record, the area overlooking A on Grand Bazaar is deemed to be "inbounds" for gameplay since you can access it using nothing but the features on the map. You do not need an MAV to get up there.

There will be places that can only be reached by going out of bounds and then coming back into bounds, these would be deemed to be glitching since you have to leave the map first to gain position.

In addition to that, as has already been stated, using the MAV as a platform to gain access to safe spots on a map are classed as glitching on BFN servers as you have already discovered.

You have got to ask yourself the following question.
If you are SL and you MAV one of your players to the top of a building, then spawn on him on next respawn, then your squad spawns on you after that, you will have four players who can do nothing towards the overall teamplay of the game apart from kill from a safe spot with little to no risk of death themselves. Would you say that leads to the balanced and fair gamestyle that BFN is trying to promote?

If you are truely being honest with yourself, I am sure you will understand (and agree) why we do not allow MAV's to be used for vertical transport of players or for other players to benefit from the actions of members of their squad who are using the MAV to reach places that should not be reached.

I have no objection to abiding by server rules, I pressed H and kept the chat off screen and didn't see the message, my error.

To be 100% honest, I don't give a monkeys if using a mav is allowed or not, I do try and follow server rules and this time I missed the message and got the heave-ho!!!

I would appreciate have the ban overturned, but if you don't want to fair enough.

Thanks.
