Always had tons of fun on this server. Rules pertaining to "heavy" assets are strictly enforced - I kind of like it that way

Now why would you have been kicked????
what was the reason...Dunehunter..I wish i could have seen the screenie on that.
do you know who the admins were at the time, and can you tell me the time and date to save me from having to read hours of logs...
and was it an auto kick or an admin???
please advise.

thank you for the kind words and the feed back...we try to make sure we do what we say we are going to do when it comes to the rules on the server so everyone knows what to except when they play there, we have the rules scrolling in game and on our web site and at the start of this post.

No insurgency server anymore? Wow, AAS is okay, I guess... It's just a way of patting both teams on the head and saying: "There, now you BOTH have scopes and FOBs and armor and airplanes. Go noob crazy."

Highlighted servers are ran and operated by completely different clans, you should probably find their server feedback thread go on their website, and find out.

Banned for "asset stealing" when trying to lead half of a mechanized infantry squad on Muttrah. Was asked to disband squad 7 despite having both disbanded it Unfortunately, admins were in one squad and had quicked my driver before we could grab the other APC to work in cooperation with an infantry squad (the only two on mumble).
This server has a large list of failings:
- Admins occupied solely with assuring themselves of acquiring an asset.
- Lack of judgement and quick, rash decisions favoured over giving players any chance to defend themselves from their "guilty actions"
- Lack of mumble and otherwise uncohesive squads. None of the admins are even on mumble, so what's the use?
- Lack of general teamwork from player base. Cooperation between squads is if anything discouraged by admin actions.
- Irrational, useless server rules destined to allow better access of the assets to the admins.
I've been trying to register onto the website, however it requires an email "authenticated by an admin". If you would like to do so, I will gladly PM the offending admin's name there, or if you'd prefer on the PR forums so that you may deal with them at your discretion to improve server quality.
That about sums my overall impression of the server, advise any unfamiliar players to avoid if other servers are available.

This...
I was the driver initially kicked, we made a seperate APC squad for our clan mechanised infantry, and I didn't see this being a problem as the only other APC squad had 2 members in it, and there are 4 APCs...
I was then kicked, before even entering an APC, for "asset stealing" without having a chance to even explain myself, I wasn't even warned or told to disband the squad.
I have played on this server before and not found any problems before now, I am disappointed in this turn of events.

I'd have to agree with the above two posts in regards to admins kicking with no warning.
I was kicked 3 days ago, for taking a Scimitar, whilst being in a recon squad. There were no other recon squads, or even apc/armour squads on the team, and yet the first I knew of the admins problem was when I was removed from the server. I have never been kicked from a server before, and I can assure you, even a single warning from the admin concerned would have made me leave the vehicle where it was.
That being said, the abrupt kick, with no chance whatsoever to explain myself, ruined what I had actually found to be a fairly good server when I first joined. I even signed up to your website to gain access to your forums, to avoid this having to go here, but 3+ days have passed, and your admin still hasn't verified my application.
Overall, a decent server for some teamwork, but avoid it until they get some of their admin procedures sorted.

I had a recon squad on this server before with a fellow dev, we were using a scimitar to scout enemy locations and relaying the information to some infantry squads we were working with, we had not lost any assets and had 0 deaths.
We were promptly kicked because the =HOG= apc squad died (they had many deaths and were working alone it seemed, rushing out of base again and again with the big assets).. it seems they wanted another vehicle, and I guess they think that a scimitar is an apc??
I haven't been back to the server since...

I tired to play on this server two days ago. Got banned with no warning for "destroying assets" (I blew up the fence by accident that one of the admins built ) . Admin came up to me, shot me and banned me. My friend tried to explain what exactly happened because I was already gone, well he got kicked as well.
Personally I don't care what happens with your server, but if the leaders of that clan will not start looking into the feedback they are getting, they will find themselves playing alone pretty soon. Instead of getting defensive about bad feedback, you should look into it. i understand if you get a bad player or two who will bad mouth your server, but when it's constant, perhaps there is a pattern there

Hello, I have a suggestion and a good Idea for the next PR update…
I tried to play in a =HOG= server VIRGINIA 24/7 MUTTRAH CITY PR 0.9 =HOG= ; when I first sign in the trasportHeli was lucked with one person in it; there were 3 transport helicopters in the carrier and a 4th one flying with latter mention squat so I opened up an unlocked squat and I named it "helicopter".
Everyone is suppose to have equal opportunity to the game novelties (asses) not just one guy... well I was kicked for that. even though I closed my squat and join the trasportheli after the guy unlocked it. I was call thief... the only thing I was doing is sitting duck typing and trying to reason with some guy throwing grenades at me. the Admin did not Identified himself as an admin . I signed back in, looking for the admin, the only =HOG= admin "=HOG= Cannon_Fodd3r_PL" told me that I didn't get in the lucked squat soon enough. "Not soon enough?".
Why are some servers Administrators abusing the power they have? This is wrong…
BF2 PR is a video game and we are all supposed to have fun and equal opportunity to the games novelties “asses”
1. Some squats are lucked up must of the time leaving others out (Even when there are 4 Helis, one squat formed by one person takes control and calls the other helis his reserve, with the exclusive that the game only needed one chopper, this is absurd and abusive) and as there is no way to ensure that the server admin is some one with criteria I came with the following idea that could be implemented in following patches or versions.
Here it is for your consideration:
-When you request a pilot kit, you should have no less than 10 hours of chopper fly in training or BF2.
-When you enter helicopters or plains you should be automatically place in a squat call “Air 1”, “Air 2” etc. - -if you are in another squat, then you will be switch…
-After dieing if you don’t get a pilot kit right away, let’s say 60 seconds then you would be switch from “Air” squat to infantry squat.
Same goes for the Armor vehicles.
May be this would finish with the envy, and with the: “it is my APC when your name is not even written on it”.
Know how to use the vehicle and be there or be square….

Me any my friend were playing on this server awhile back. We managed to ambush an enemy squad, and one of them had a marksman or a sniper kit. My friend takes it, and we continue on. As we're walking, we walk past one of the clan members. He tells my friend to give him the kit, my friend denies, and he gets shot in the head. needless to say, we don`t play there as often.

I've had a rather nasty experience as well with the Admins on the Muttrah server not too long ago. On the MEC side 3 APCs were sitting in the base, along with about half of our team waiting for transport, since all of our FBs were down and were all waiting to get back into the fight. A lone APC was being ran by the HOG members doing who knows what in the middle of nowhere, and ignoring pretty much any transport requests by everyone at base. I take the initiative and created another APC squad along with my friend, since their squad was locked, and proceeded to start ferrying troops to the front. Then as if it was their 6th sense kicking in, they scrambled to type on chat "GET OUT OF THE BTR, ITS OURS" and literally run back full speed to us, then opened fire on us with a full squad of infantry inside our APC and tracked us, and wounded nearly all of us, and then go back on their merry way.
Its this type of asinine behavior that tarnishes what could have been a great server. Admins are not kept in check, and you're pretty much forced into infantry roles, since the admins have dibs on any asset that's worth driving; even though they don't really do a great job of it.

Sorry, for the lack of response from our clan. I have not been playing PR much since the new patch (I think the game play in all has been ruined) and many of our main admins where partaking in the BFBC2 beta. I am surprised to read so many negative post though, I can assure you that we look into any accusations of admin abuse and if founded we act on it. The main admins as a matter of fact just had a meeting on our Admin policies. As for no warnings the scrolling rules are your warning read them and follow them it is a pretty simple concept (or so we thought). Since this does seem to be a problem though, we are encouraging our admins to give more warnings before taking further action. We are trying to tweak some of our rules since the new patch came out and all of the different vehicles have been added. In the old version it didn't make since to have multiple squads for the same asset. Often the teams have 9 (which is the max) squads going and duplicate squads just keep a more useful squad from forming. However, with the new armory that MEC has multiple vehicle squads surely makes sense now. I will also look into seeing what is taking so long to get people registered.
Thanks for your feedback

Like admins shooting players for assets and only then banning them? It was interesting response but didn't address anything that is being done about the filtering of administrators really.
Rules might get changed but is it the attitude of people in charge that has to really be addressed, that's all I'm saying

If you can give me a name I'll look into it. I seriously doubt the admin that banned you for a week shot you though, but if you can give me a name I will look into it.

I can tell you that I now advise uFear players not to play on HOG Muttrah server. We always played there, and in fact uFear
a_cookie_=D plays there all the time. Today he build a FOB at dock and our squad was holding docks, while second uFear squad attacked North City. Once we got North City to neutral and build FOB there, cookie asked one of the squad members to burn our TOW, so we can build a new TOW at North City. We had to do it because TOW limit was reached. One of your HOG members TKed the squad member that burned TOW, and when we explained why we did it, your HOG admin banned cookie.
I am not going to waste time registering on HOG forums to plea for what is a clearly a wrong ban. You have your server and you can admin it any way you want. But if any admin in uFear puled shit like that, he would loose admin at least for a week. And we would apologize to a player we wronged.
But then we are uFear and we like to make players feel welcome.
