Na we prefer shorter rounds as most of us don't have all night to play so want to get a few maps in. With no timer maps can last hours and it get's boring. (Not always, but it can)

Would it be possible to change rule for kicking low point players (I was also victim of it once - when I got an open slot after long refreshfest in server window) in a such way that it will include TIME they are currently playing.

Something Like:

points/time and who has lowest value is kicked. Probably adding some weight constants w1*points/w2*time

Those with 0 points would be out of consideration if they are playing shorter then x min (5 min?)

Just an idea how to kick those who are not doing much for their team and not those who freshly joined and could be a valuable asset.

that was sort of what i was getting at, when i was getting kicked i noticed 1 person on my team say he was going AFK, so he could of been kicked...
not a problem though, trying to register to the site to make a IGI registration attempt, not getting my email back so im abit stuck at the mo...

Being afk for more time that it takes to walk quickly to the toilet, drain the lizard and get back again is an afk too far on a full server I'm afraid. That sort of afk will get you a kick on a full server!

Before we had lots of space and there was no problem because there was always a free spot one of our 3 favourite servers....

now we have a situation where both our own server HeliX #1, Thors Brigade and the IGI servers are full....

If i don't find a solution to that problem we will start to kick people on HeliX to very soon..

players are always going to want to get on the servers that are wel admined, where players take new players under their wings and bring them up to speed, where voip usage is high and the fun is greatest.

The numbers of players coming into PR is meaning people are having to fight for places on servers right now. Don't forget people, there are more servers than you think that are running fine, just have a look around and support the community by sharing your wealth of knowledge, filtering down through the other players so PR has a viable future.

tbh I don't have time to work out who is the most justifiable to kick as i'm trying to play the game myself!

There are people queing up to join so if I have to kick 3 or 4 people to get in paying clan members then i'll just kick the bottom few regardless of what they are doing as I don't have time to look. Once things calm down a bit i'm sure it will be easier.

Same here: if I get arsey or grouchy then it's because I'm busy playing & thinking as opposed to admining. Nothing personal.

GBH4 is the most tolerant admin I know..... I'm sure he has a 2 screen system

Aljen · Post by **Aljen** » 2007-02-18 02:43

I understand, I was thinking about using some automatic script system (I dont know what is possible to do with BF2 server)

.:iGi:. Eggenberg4Ever · Post by **.:iGi:. Eggenberg4Ever** » 2007-02-18 02:54

Dunno, sounds a bit spambot to me so best avoided.

No I can just alt-tab out and back in very fast.

iGi for the world!!!!

Also, this is not really the place, but those interested in joining iGi will be requested to help towards our server(s). Do not join expecting to get a free place on the server forever.

That would be really cool. The best rounds i have ever had on PR was with 0.5 on 64 Player Maps without time limit.

Best new Map for me is Ejod 64 and its so cool to play with a great Squad about 1h on this Battlefield.I feel never boring on this Map or other 64 Maps without timelimit, its so cool if your Team has only 1 Flag and you strike then the enemy back in there own Desert and won this round after that.

I think with the new RP stuff the best Maps for Teamplay are the 64 Maps without a Timelimit.

I hope you will change your position in the future

, that whould be really cool.

.:iGi:. Greg · Post by **.:iGi:. Greg** » 2007-02-18 22:24

I don't think that is likely to change. Sometimes we extend the round time if it is a particularly good game, but as UGH has said most of us are only on for a short time each night so we want some variety. Not just play one map for hours.
